Then It Rained

(album: The K Is Silent - 2020)

I was talking on the phone with my neighbor Ted
I asked him, "How's it goin'? ", this is what he said
His wife was in Ohio with some old college friends
Would I wanna watch the game?
And then it rained

There's this time down in Fort Worth in some old honky tonk
I was out of town on business, wasn't doing nothing wrong
I ordered up a hot dog and a glass of chardonnay
Somewhere I thought I heard George Strait
And then it rained

It rained, oh, it rained
It stopped for a little while
And then it rained

There's a day I won't forget, I was walking through the house
The pillows were crooked, all the cushions on the couch
And I checked underneath them and found a little change
And I saw a couple stains
Then it rained

It rained, oh, it rained
It stopped for a little while
And then it rained
It rained, oh, it rained
It stopped for a little while
And then it rained

Was coming home from the car wash on my way back from work
Dropped off some canned goods over at the church
Then my wife called to remind me we had dinner plans at 8
I had to tell her I'd be late
