I see a better moon arising I see her travel on its way
I see the earthquakes and lightning I see it many times today
Don't go out tonight And it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
I hear the hurricanes are blowing I know the end is coming soon
I feel rivers overflowing I hear the whine of raging blue
Don't go out tonight And it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Don't go out tonight And it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Hope you've got your things together Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for a nasty weather One eye is taking for a knife
Don't go out tonight And it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Don't go out tonight And it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Long as I remember The rain's been coming down
Clouds of mystery purring Confusion on the ground
Good men through the ages Trying to find the sun
And I wonder, still I wonder Who stopped the rain?
I went down Virginia Seeking shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable I watched the tower grow
Confused plans and new deals Nothing gonna change
And I wonder, still I wonder Who stopped the rain?
Who stopped the rain?
Heard the singers playing How we cheat from all
The drought and frowns together Trying to keep warm
Still the rain kept pouring Falling on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder Who stopped the rain?
Well, I worked a good job in the city Working for the man every night and day
And I never lost a minute of sleeping Running by the way things might have been
Big wheel keep on turning Brownberry keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river Dreamed of a place in Memphis
Hump a lot of pain down in New Orleans But I learned my song with the sound of the city
Until I hit you right on the riverboat queen
Big wheel keep on turning Brownberry keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Well, if you come down to the river Bet you're gonna find some people there
You don't have to worry Cause you got no money
People on the river are happy to give Big wheel keep on turning
Brownberry keep on burning
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Someone told me long ago There's a calm before there's thaw
I know, and it's been coming for some time
When it's over so they say It'll rain a sunny day
I know, shining down like water
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
Coming down a sunny day
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
Coming down a sunny day
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
Coming down a sunny day
I wanna know Have you ever seen the rain
Just got home from Illinois Walked her from the rowboat
Got to take down Take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in Pretty soon I'm singing
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
There's a giant of cartwheels A statue wearing high heels
Look all the happy creatures Standing on the lawn
A dinosaur with trolley I listen to by goings
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
Tambourines and elephants Are playing in the band
When you take a ride Into the flying spoon
Ooh, ooh, ooh, wondrous separation Proved by my magician
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
Tambourines and elephants Are playing in the band
When you take a ride Into the flying spoon
Ooh, ooh, ooh, wondrous separation Proved by my magician
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
Oh, we're traveling a lot Walked her from the rowboat
Look all the happy creatures Standing on the lawn
Bar for me tomorrow Today I'll find no sorrows
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
Doo, doo, doo, looking out my back door
