About

The song is about the heat wave and drought in the summer of 1988, and its severe effects on migrant workers. The song was recorded in Milwaukee in an old shoe factory.

The severe weather was felt coast to coast, and its toll estimated at over 5,000 lives and $70 billion in economic losses.

Beautiful Rain Lyrics

Everything around this place
Is comin' to a halt
Nobody's pickin' nothin'
It isn't anybody's fault

There's nothin' to do but sit around
Hurry up and wait
Holy Mary shed a tear for us
The hour is gettin' late

I wanna see it rain
I wanna see it rain
I wanna see it rain, rain, rain
A beautiful rain

Life is drainin' from the fields
Hope is runnin' dry
A million dollars cannot buy one drop
The clouds I see are only a lie

The pickers can't afford the fare back home
And they can't afford to stay yeah
The president sent a man up here
But there wasn't nothin' that he could say

I wanna see it rain
I wanna see it rain
I wanna see it rain, rain, rain
The beautiful rain
I wanna ses it rain, rain, rain
A beautiful rain

Forty days and forty nights
Then there's forty more
It's takin' a toll on everyone
The mood is set for some kinda war

Is it something that we do
Tell me is it something that we said
I'm wonderin' what the hell is wrong
I'm gettin' a little bit afraid

I wanna see it rain
I wanna see it rain
I wanna ses it rain, rain, rain
A beautiful rain

I wanna see it rain
I wanna see it rain
I wanna ses it rain, rain, rain
A beautiful rain

I wanna see it rain, rain, rain
A beautiful rain
I wanna see it rain, rain, rain
A beautiful rain

I wanna see a beautiful rain
I wanna see a beautiful rain
I wanna see a beautiful rain
I wanna see a beautiful rain
Rain! Rain! Rain!
