Don't it seem to rain a lot in our lives

A dark cloud always seems to hide our blue skies

Yet this Texas sun has burned its way right through my brain

Now my job is done and hard times follow just like rain



California seems to be the place to go

Dreams out there come true they say it's time to go

But our California dreams turned out to be just lies

Don't it seem to rain a lot in our lives



But somewhere we'll find new dreams and sunshine

Green fields and blue skies where blue birds fly

Where the only rain is a summer shower to cool the night

Yes somewhere there's new dreams and sunshine



Last night I went to Tennessee in new dreams

Where cotton jumped into your sack and money grew from trees

But when I awoke and found I had dream and almost cried

Don't it seem to rain a lot in our lives



But somewhere we'll find new dreams and sunshine...
