WHO'LL STOP THE RAIN

Creedence Clearwater Revival's original version

Long as I remember, the rain been comin' down
Clouds of mystery pourin', confusion on the ground
Good men through the ages, tryin' to find the sun
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain

I went down Virginia, seekin' shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable, I watched the tower grow
Five year plans and new deals, wrapped in golden chains
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain

Heard the singers playin', how we cheered for more
The crowd had rushed together, tryin' to keep warm
Still the rain kept pourin', fallin' on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain

Written by John Fogerty, from Creedence Clearwater Revival's 1970 album Cosmo's Factory.
