Raining On the Dark Side Songtext
von Michael O'Connor

She ran me dry drinking doubles
Then she walked out on me
Couldn′t afford to catch a cab back home
I walked on down the shoreline
Where my pals all used to be

Raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side of the street

She said you're nothing but a broke musician
You′ll probably wind up in the can
A flat by night was all I could ever be
But I used to gin 'em up
I could play like Magic Sam

It's raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side
It′s raining on the dark side of the street


Drenched to the bone and my luck′s turned muddy
Who will remember me
If my tears fall down like a tramp in the gutter
And wash into the sea

Beneath the lights of the Balinese
Everybody's drinking wine
This old box is all I′ve ever known
I'll play one more song on my Stella
Before I use her to row back home

It′s raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side of the street

She said you're nothing but a broke musician
You′ll probably wind up in the can
A flat by night was all I could ever be
But I used to gin 'em up, boy
I could play like Magic Sam

It's raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side
It′s raining on the dark side
Raining on the dark side of the street
