Blues: Feel the Rain Fall Lyrics
CONLEY
(& Chain Gang)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
I hear a thunder rollin' (Yeah)
It's behind that wall (Yeah)
We're gonna roll like thunder
I'm gonna taste the mornin'
And feel the rain fall (Feel the rain fall)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
I'm gonna rise like sunshine (Yeah)
If I see her turn (Yeah)
I'm gonna rise like sunshine,
I'm gonna set down on her,
And feel the sun burn (Feel the sun burn)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
GUARD:
Hey Jim! Got you a visitor, Boy.
SLATON:
Hello, Jim.
CONLEY:
You who I think you are?
SLATON:
Coupla questions for you.
CONLEY:
You want some water? Bring the Guv'nor some water.
SLATON:
No, thank you.
CONLEY:
We fixin' to talk 'bout that mess with Mr. Frank.
SLATON:
Yes.
CONLEY
Yeah
CHAIN GANG
Yeah
SLATON:
When they found the body in the basement,
Coroner's Report says there was sawdust in the mouth and lungs.
CONLEY
Hey yeah
CHAIN GANG
Yeah
SLATON: Got any idea what that means?
CONLEY
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
CHAIN GANG
Yeah
SLATON:
Means she had to be breathin' in the basement,
because there isn't any sawdust on the second floor.
Means she was alive when you carried her into the basement.
CONLEY:
Then she musta come back to life,
Because she was dead as last Christmas Eve when Mr. Frank showed me the body.
We're gonna roll like thunder
SLATON:
Coroner's Report raises some questions about your story, wouldn't you say?
CONLEY:
That so? You can try and prove that in court, I imagine.
You ever been on the chain gang, Gov'nor?
SLATON:
Not yet.
CONLEY
You ever break these rocks on the chain gang?
Get yourself thinkin' Guv'nor -
Who you wanna have a good time!
Hey yeah
CHAIN GANG
Yeah
CONLEY
Now Mr. Frank he had a good time!
Man knows how to have a good time!
CONLEY (& Chain Gang)
Hey yeah! (Hey yeah!)
Hey yeah! (Yeah!)
I get a high fever! (Yeah)
When I hear her call! (Yeah)
She gonna cool my fever - (Yeah)
I gonna take that woman! (Yeah)
We're gonna ride like lightnin'
We're gonna roll, roll, roll like thunder
And feel the rain fall (Feel the rain fall)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
Hey yeah (Yeah)
