Baptized By Rain

I'm getting baptized by rain
Loving every second in the wide range
Dreams of living big with a beautiful lady
With a well trained dog and a love that's steady
And I think of you in that white sundress
Under that sun and over my head
Hoping one day I'll hold your hand
And on that finger is a gold band
But for now

You're cussing out my name
You're letting out your rage
Make a fist and you start to shove
And I'll call the sheriff, you'll call my bluff
You scared me half to death
Had me holding my breath
But for now I'm in this range
Getting baptized by rain
I'm baptized by rain

Wouldn't it be so damn nice
To work the day and I'll work the night
And to make a living and have some luck
Have some children and make a buck with
Little ones running around
In some brand new shoes and a brand new house
And I'll get you a brand new blouse
And I'll be happy and you'll be proud
Oh man

But that ain't how it goes
Look down, I see my toes
Poking out of these worn old shoes
My face is red, my heart is blue
I'm in trying times
I'm hurting to save a dime
But I push it all away
While I'm getting baptized by rain
Getting baptized by rain

Outside and away from shame
Thank you gold streets and the better days
And maybe I'll listen to what He says
And build a life on solid land
I'll hear the words from every tongue
And I'll stand sure then rise above
I'll share His name, heed His call
Wash my sins through it all
I realize

I've been turning my back
There's not much more to ask
Well I wanted your mouth, I wanted that house
But it means nothing at all
So I look to better days
Just filled with that grace
As I stand here amazed
Getting baptized by rain
I'm baptized by rain

I'm baptized by rain, ooh
I'm baptized by rain, ooh
I'm baptized by rain, ooh
I'm baptized by rain, ooh
I'm baptized by rain
I'm baptized by, baptized by, baptized by rain
