I wish it would stop raining
It's been pouring down for days
I listen to my neighbours dog complaining
I should be on my way
Stuck in this sleepy town
Thats like a muddy hole in the ground
Before to long
I'll be southward bound
No use complaining'
'bout flooded roads and trains that don't run
Got to slow down my mind
And wait for the sun
Soon as the roads dry up
I'm going where fruit in aboundance is found
Don't look for me
I'll be southward bound
South of the cold hard rain
South of the hurricane
South of lonely nights
South of arguments and fights
The night will soon be over
I hear the early bird sing
Nothing in this world lasts for ever
I smell change in the wind
Light on the southern sky
Will lead me out of this town
Don't look for me
I'll be southward bound
It's been pouring down for days
I listen to my neighbours dog complaining
I should be on my way
Stuck in this sleepy town
Thats like a muddy hole in the ground
Before to long
I'll be southward bound
No use complaining'
'bout flooded roads and trains that don't run
Got to slow down my mind
And wait for the sun
Soon as the roads dry up
I'm going where fruit in aboundance is found
Don't look for me
I'll be southward bound
South of the cold hard rain
South of the hurricane
South of lonely nights
South of arguments and fights
The night will soon be over
I hear the early bird sing
Nothing in this world lasts for ever
I smell change in the wind
Light on the southern sky
Will lead me out of this town
Don't look for me
I'll be southward bound
