Like a raging flood that ruins a poor man's land You keep doing things to hurt me all you can But the thickness that we knew is growing thin How much rain can one man stand? How much rain can one man stand? I gave you everything but my right hand If you won't let me love you, then don't let me be your friend How much rain can one man stand? I can see them big old storm clouds moving in There's a stranger in your big brown eyes again And you've told him that I'm just an old time friend How much rain can one man stand? How much rain can one man stand? I gave you everything but my right hand If you won't let me love you, then don't let me be your friend How much rain can one man stand? How much rain can one man stand?
