lyrics

The silence of the railroad tracks as I walk them in the rain
every weary step I tremble with the pain
I seen it come and I seen it go and I stood there like a fool
I watched the white boys in the night beat and torture you

Rain

Rain

I tore my clothes and I washed my hands and I tried to let it go

I beat on doors and I told the ones who seen the wicked blows
I took your chains wrapped around my neck and I placed in it my hand
I shook my fist at the government tellin' them who I am

Rain

Rain

Tears fall down from the desperate ones stop the madness of the gun

Hear the drummer in the night call to freedom eagle’s flight

Rain

while it Rains

Rain

Sacred rain
