Kentucky Rain
Elvis Presley Seven lonely days And a dozen towns ago I reached out one night And you were gone Don't know why you'd run, What you're running to or from All I know is I want to bring you home Thumbing for a ride So I'm walking in the rain, On this lonely Kentucky backroad I've loved you much too long And my love's too strong To let you go, never knowing Kentucky rain keeps pouring down What went wrong And up ahead's another town With the rain in my shoes, In the cold Kentucky rain, That I'll go walking thru Searchin for you In the cold Kentucky rain To some old gray bearded man Showed your photograph They said "Yes, she's been here" Sitting on a bench Outside a gen'ral store But their memory wasn't clear No, wait the day before Was it yesterday, So I fin'ly got a ride With a preacher man who asked As we drove on thru the rain "Where you bound on such a dark afternoon?" As he listened I explained And he left me with a prayer That I'd find you |
