We made the rain come down on Sunny Days
And never had to cope with climate change
We called the water down from up above
And made the deserts blossom with our love
We met beneath an ether-yellow sky
And wandered through a dusty land and dry
We traveled through a gently gathering mist
And rain began to fall when we first kissed
The Farmers and the Children in the street
Threw violets and roses at our feet
They welcomed us as heroes and as friends
And took us in their homes at journey's end
The water-barons pointed and accused
Still jealous of the privileges they abused
The made us out as charlatans and thieves
And vowed they'd see us bowing on our knees
Instumental verse
Accordion/banjo
Piano/flute
So now we make our music on the run
And bring relief to every Nature�s Son
Like Robin Hoods of Earthly paradise
We bring the dusty boneyards back to life
We made the rain come down on sunny days�
