Rainmaker Letra - Bruce Springsteen

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 crawlin' '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 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 burnin' field unloadin' 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

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 nothin' 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
