The Rainmakers

The Rainmakers - Hoo Dee Hoo songtekst

Je score:

The girl said do you love me, the boy said I do

The girl said prove it, the boy said hoo-dee-hoo

I headed for the water tower straight to the top

With my spray paint can and I did not stop

I painted your name larger than life

About eight feet tall and about twelve feet wide

And I think that you believed me when I came back down

And for a couple of weeks we were the talk of the town



And the girls sang hoo-dee-hoo

And the boys sang hoo-dee-hoo

And everybody sang hoo-dee-hoo

Hoo-dee-hoo-hoo-hoo



Then I left town looking for the Holy Grail

You left the very next week with the jet set

Sailing for the Caribbean where the rich kids play

I missed you so much I fell down and prayed

I joined every church that claimed they knew my sin

They made me write the Lord's Prayer on the head of a pin



CHORUS



Well one year it was the factory and one year the park

We heated with wood and the house caught fire

I reached for a figure through the smoke and the sparks

But which done did I save, the girl or the guitar



Well I made a lot of money, got a lot of good press

Writing paperback novels like a man possessed

Every name was changed, every story was true

Every priest was me, every stripper was you

And they danced like angels cast out for being lovers

And I wrote their life story on a matchbook cover



CHORUS



I went home for Christmas to that little old town

I ate a big dinner and went walking around

I seen some other dumb kid had made that long hard climb

He'd wasted his paint, wasted his time

But I know I'd do it all again if you asked me to

And I'd take you with me this time

Singing hoo-dee-hoo
