Vera comes home on Sunday morning after hanging with the boys all night Laughing and drinking with them, thinking she's one of them And that makes everything allright She vaguely remembers going out in the parking lot With the stone mason's son Who had his way with her, then walked away when he was done Sometimes she thinks about leaving--she tells herself, someday You know, her daddy said she'd never amount to much Of anything anyway
Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, tears falling down on me No, that ain't the way it's supposed to be Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, tears falling down on me
I've cried so many tears over man's unkindness to man People say that's the way it is, but we gotta do what we can Why does it have to be that way, I just don't understand Rain falling from my eyes, rain falling from the sky And I don't know why
A pack of jokers get their jollies beating up on a black king There's outrage in the city for a while But do you think it'll really change anything Get rid of the gates, free the people And let the games commence We gotta take our power back And use it in ways that make sense
Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, tears falling down on me If I could, I would change the course of history Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, tears falling down on me
Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, rain washing over me Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, pain washing over me
Rain, wash it away, rain, wash it away Wash the pain away, rain, wash it away
Oh, tears falling down on me Oh, tears falling down on meTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
