Grand Canyon Blues
I saw the Grand Canyon blues when I was twenty-one
Got my walkin' shoes from the seventh son
I heard the tale of two cities from a passer-by
He said "You'll never find the answer if you never try"
For a time in my life I took all there was
Stayed up day and night, try to ease my cause
Oh, nothin' could be finer than your company
Over and over it gets better to me
And it's rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
I feel the rain, oh, rain, you are rain
And you're fallin' down on me
Been so long since I started, so long since I began
But I still can remember every town I've been in
Clear ev'ry water, I'm your sure boat
You're up and you're down, I'm high and I'm low
I feel the rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
I feel the rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
Sail on, sail on, sail away
Found you a lover who will want you to stay
'Cause nothin' can be finer than your company
Over and over it's better to me
And it's rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
I feel the rain, I feel the rain, I feel the, ooh, rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
It keeps on rainin', oh, babe
It keeps fallin' down on me
Got my walkin' shoes from the seventh son
I heard the tale of two cities from a passer-by
He said "You'll never find the answer if you never try"
For a time in my life I took all there was
Stayed up day and night, try to ease my cause
Oh, nothin' could be finer than your company
Over and over it gets better to me
And it's rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
I feel the rain, oh, rain, you are rain
And you're fallin' down on me
Been so long since I started, so long since I began
But I still can remember every town I've been in
Clear ev'ry water, I'm your sure boat
You're up and you're down, I'm high and I'm low
I feel the rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
I feel the rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
Sail on, sail on, sail away
Found you a lover who will want you to stay
'Cause nothin' can be finer than your company
Over and over it's better to me
And it's rain, oh, rain, nothin' but rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
I feel the rain, I feel the rain, I feel the, ooh, rain
It keeps fallin' down on me
It keeps on rainin', oh, babe
It keeps fallin' down on me
