About the Artist
Lyrics
Parched crops dying 'neath a dead sun We've been praying but no good comes The dog's howling, home's stripped bare We've been worried but now we're scared People come for comfort or just to come Taste the dark sticky potion or hear the drums Hands raised to Yahweh to bring the rain down He comes crawling 'cross the dry fields like a dark shroud Rainmaker, a little faith for hire Rainmaker, the house is on fire Rainmaker, take everything you have Sometimes folks need to believe in something So bad, so bad, so bad They'll hire a rainmaker (Rainmaker) Rainmaker says white's black and black's white Says night's day and day's night Says close your eyes and go to sleep now I'm in a burning field unloading buckshot into low clouds Rainmaker, a little faith for hire Rainmaker, the house is on fire Rainmaker, take everything you have Sometimes folks need to believe in something So bad, so bad, so bad They'll hire a rainmaker (Rainmaker) Slow moving wagon drawing through a dry town Painted rainbow, crescent moon and dark clouds Brother patriot, come forth and lay it down Your blood brother for king and crown For your rainmaker They come for the smile, the firm handshake They come for the raw chance of a fair shake Some come to make damn sure, my friend This mean season's got nothing to do with them They come 'cause they can't stand the pain Of another long hot day of no rain 'Cause they don't care or understand What it really takes for the sky to open up the land Rainmaker, a little faith for hire Rainmaker, the house is on fire Rainmaker, take everything you have Sometimes folks need to believe in something So bad, so bad, so bad They'll hire a rainmaker Rainmaker Rainmaker Rainmaker
