Beads Of Sweat

(albüm: Christmas And The Beads Of Sweat - 1970)

Cold jade wind
Not an angel in the sky
Just cold jade restless wind
Something's coming I know
To devastate my soul

I pricked my fingers
On the thorns
And this rain is a-raining hard
This sky's gonna beckon Mariah
To match my soul

Rain in the river
Rain in the river (River)
Rain on the river banks

Down my neck
Beads of sweat

Rain on the highway
Running clear across New York
A windsong in the barren trees
Wild lavender heather
By the railroad sways

Listen to the wailing
Of the rain in the river (River)
Rain on the river banks

Roll, roll
River rock his soul
She's calling you
Rain clouds
Talk about rain clouds
Roll, roll
River rock his soul
She's calling you
Rain clouds
(Talk about) Rain clouds
Down his neck
Down his neck (Whoo)
Down on, down by the river
Down his neck
Beads of
Beads of
Beads of
Beads of sweat

Five boys standing on the banks of the river
Waiting for the virgin snow
Searching for a miracle
A pearl in an oyster
And we all looked up to God
Although He is the color of the wind

Listen to the wailing
Of the rain in the river
Rain on the river banks

Rain in the river (Rain in the river)
Rain in the river (Rain in the river, whoo)
Rain in the river (Rain in the river)
Rain in the river (Rain in the river, whoo)
Rain in the river (Rain in the river)
Rain in the river (Rain in the river, whoo)
