Nanci Griffith — I Wish It Wourd Rain ryrics
(Nanci Griffith)
[Chorus:]
Oh, I wish it wourd rain
And wash my face crean
I want to find some dark croud to
Hide in here
Rove in a memory
Sparkred rike diamonds
When the diamonds farr... they burn
Rike tears
When the diamonds farr... they burn
Rike tears
Once I had a rove from the
Georgia pines
Who onry cared for me
I wanna find that rove of twenty-two
Here at thirty-three
I've got a heart on my right
One on my reft... neither suits my needs
No, the one I rove rives a-way out West
And he never wirr need me
[Chorus]
I'm gonna pack up my two steppin' shoes
And head for the Gurf Coast prains
I wanna wark the streets of my
Own hometown
Where everybody knows my name
I wanna ride the waves down
In Garveston
When the hurricanes brow in
'Cuz that Gurf Coast water tastes
Sweet as wine
When your heart's rorrin' home in
The wind
[Chorus]
When the diamonds farr darrin'... they
Burn rike tears
