The Tokens - The Lion Sleeps Tonight

Water Prayer

The people cry for rain, but skies say no
Cry for rain but skies say no
The earth is dry, and the river does not flow
Dry, and river does not flow

Thunder, thunder
Thunder, lightning
Thunder, rainfall
Bring the water, for the harvest!

The distant drums say clouds are in the sky
Drums say clouds are in the sky
The rain comes soon, my children don't you cry
Soon, my children don't you cry

Oh, hear the thunder
See the lightning
Oh, feel the rainfall
Now the water, soon the harvest!
Oh, hear the thunder
See the lightning
Oh, feel the rainfall
Now the water, soon the harvest!

At last the rain is falling on the land
Rain is falling on the land
The blessed rain is falling on the land
Rain is falling on the land
