Heavy Cloud No Rain

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Turned on the weather man just after the newsI needed sweet rain to wash away my bluesHe looked at the chart but he look in vainHeavy cloud but no rain[Verse 2]Back in time with Louis X-V-OneAt the court of the people he was number oneHe the bluest blood they ever seenWhen the king said hi to the guillotineThe royal astrologer was run out of breathHe thought that maybe the rain would postpone his deathHe look in the sky but he look in vainHeavy cloud but no rain[Verse 3]Well the land was cracking and the river was dryAll the crops were dying when they ought to be highSo to save his farm from the banker's draftThe farmer took out a book on some old witchcraftHe made a spell and a potion on a midsummer nightHe killed a brindled calf in the pale moonlightHe prayed to the sky but he prayed in vainHeavy cloud but no rain[Guitar Solo]Heavy cloud but no rain[Bridge]The sun won't shine till the clouds are goneThe clouds won't go till their work is doneAnd every morning you'll hear me prayIf only it would rain today[Verse 4]I asked my baby if there'd be some wayShe said she'd save her love for a rainy daySo I look in the sky but I look in vainHeavy cloud but no rainOh[Outro](fade)
