He came
riding in on the sunrise
on a hot West Texas day
A fancy man in a painted wagon
with some fancy things to say
Looks like you folks need some water,
well, water is my game
For the small price of one hundred dollars,
I bet you I can make it rain
Step back non -believers,
oh, the rain will never come
Someone started a fire at morning,
somebody beat a drum
He said, some may think I'm crazy
for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over,
the folks are gonna see some rain
They all just stood there staring,
trying to believe
That there was one named Lizzy Cooper
who said he wasn't lyin' to you
She said, call yourself a rain man,
you ought to be ashamed
Startin' all these people
a dreamin',
thinkin' you can make it rain
Step back, non -believers,
oh, the rain will never come
Someone keep that fire a burnin',
somebody bleeds a drum
He said, some may think I'm crazy
for making all these plans
But it's well before this day is over
You're gonna see some rain
Oh, Lizzy, a man's gotta have a dream
And if you can't walk on
the inside with me
I'll meet you in between
Oh, come with me, Lacey,
and the stars will write your name
And if you still think I'm lyin' to you,
look, oh, you'll know
they've come to rain
Step back, non -believers,
oh, the rain will never come
Someone keep that fire a -burnin',
somebody beat the drum
He said, some may think I'm crazy
for making all these plans
But I before this day is over,
you're gonna see some rain
Step back, don't believe us,
oh, the rain will never come
Come on, keep the fire a -burning,
somebody beat the drum
He said the sun may think I'm crazy
for making all these plans
But I swear before this
day is over ,
it won't come a season blind
Step back non -believers,
or the rain will never come
Someone keep that fire a -burning
while my body beats a drum
You
