Rainy Streets

[Verse 1]
As the two lanes slicken
And the clouds that hug that ridge just thicken
And when the wind that whistles
Knocks the panes from old windows

[Chorus]
Down rainy streets
Well, there's a light that meets the ground
In the warm rush of blood to the head
Fights the sick that's been around

[Verse 2]
When bags of icy knives
Pull hard down on the mercury
And winter's whip of cold
Kills everything in the nursery

[Chorus]
Down rainy streets
Well, there's a light that meets the ground
And the warm rush of blood to the head
Fights the sick that's been around
