(in The) Pouring Rain Lyrics

(strummer)

 

 I could see as i rode in

 The ships were gone and the pit fell in

 A funeral bell tolled the hour in

 A lonely drunkard slumbering

 

 Not the twang of the guitar

 Not even the siren wail of pain

 Not the shadows of desire

 Caught in the pouring pouring rain

 

 Breeze black windows on date street

 Where i was raised up on the cheap

 (yeah, say!) ask no questions work and sleep

 'til the old tango that's on date street

 

 I can hear the sharpen of the pain

 Some lucky stranger in the rain

 Hear the sharpen of the rain

 Lucky stranger ... in the rain

 

 Hammers beat in dusty times

 On these weedy rusted lines

 Mocking the sun and optomistic signs

 All these weedy gates of iron

 

 The sun won't shine my way again

 Lucky moon was on the wane

 Oh i'll never see a star again

 In the pouring pouring rain

 

 A salty band played for the train

 A sad trombone and some refrain

 The future pointed to the weather vane

 The old calypso died of shame

 

 I hear the sharpen of the pain

 Some lucky stranger in the rian

 Hear the sharpen of the pain

 Lucky stranger pouring rain

 

 Pouring rain !!!
