Rainy Night House (Live) [2022 Remaster] Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was a rainy night
We took a taxi to your mother's home
She went to Florida
And left you with your father's gun alone
Upon her small white bed
I fell into a dream
[Chorus]
You sat up all the night and you watched me
Just to see who in the world I might be
[Verse 2]
I am from the Sunday school
I sing soprano in the upstairs choir
You are a holy man
On the FM radio
[Chorus]
I sat up all the night and I listened to thee
Just to see who in the world you might be
And what you might be to me
[Verse 3]
You called me beautiful
You called your mother, she was very tanned
So you packed your tent and you went
To live out in the Arizona sand
You are a refugee
From a wealthy family
It was a rainy night
We took a taxi to your mother's home
She went to Florida
And left you with your father's gun alone
Upon her small white bed
I fell into a dream
[Chorus]
You sat up all the night and you watched me
Just to see who in the world I might be
[Verse 2]
I am from the Sunday school
I sing soprano in the upstairs choir
You are a holy man
On the FM radio
[Chorus]
I sat up all the night and I listened to thee
Just to see who in the world you might be
And what you might be to me
[Verse 3]
You called me beautiful
You called your mother, she was very tanned
So you packed your tent and you went
To live out in the Arizona sand
You are a refugee
From a wealthy family
[Chorus]
You gave up all your father's golden factories
Just to see who in the world you might be
Who in the world
You gave up all your father's golden factories
Just to see who in the world you might be
Who in the world
