Kentucky Rain Lyrics

Kentucky Rain lyrics

Seven lonely days
And a dozen towns ago
I reached out one night
And you
were gone
Don't know why you'd run,
What you're running to or from
All
I know is I want to bring you home

So I'm walking in the
rain,
Thumbing for a ride
On this lonely Kentucky backroad
I've loved
you much too long
My love's too strong
To let you go, never
knowing
What went wrong

Kentucky rain keeps pouring down
And up
ahead's another town
That I'll be walking through
With the rain in my
shoes,
Searching for you
In the cold Kentucky rain,
In the cold
Kentucky rain

Showed your photograph
To some old gray bearded
men
Sitting on a bench
Outside a general store
They said "Yes,
she's been here"
But their memory wasn't clear
Was it
yesterday,
No, wait...the day before?

well I finally got a
ride
With a preacher man who asked
"Where you bound on such a cold
dark afternoon?"
As we drove on through the rain
And he listened I
explained
And he left me with a prayer
That I'd find you

Kentucky
rain keeps pouring down
And up ahead's another town
That I'll be walking
through
With the rain in my shoes,
Searching for you
In the cold
Kentucky rain! 
whoooooa...
In the cold Kentucky rain!

whoooooa...
In the cold Kentucky rain! 
whoooooa
