Lyrics
There's a big rain a comin'
Can't you hear the sky just moan?
There's a big rain a comin'
Raindrops hard as stone
There's a big rain a comin'
I feel it aching in his bones
And it hurts.
There's a big rain a comin'
There will be no place to hide
Rich and poor will perish
There will be no great divide
Better batten down the hatches
And put aside your foolish pride
The sins of greed will haunt you
Every woman, child, and man,
You can bow in prayer if you want to
But the rain don't give a damn
When the rain comes this time
It'll bury all the land.
So you better put on that sailor's suit and cap.
