I'm standing on the edge of a worked up field praying for the rain to come
I'm standing on the edge of a worked up field praying for the rain to come
I pray and pray and pray all day
But it don't rain at all

I'm standing at the end of a platform waiting for a train to come
I'm standing at the end of a platform waiting for a train to come
Man come out of the station say that there train don't run

I'm standing at the gate of my baby's place I was calling out her name
I'm standing at the gate of my baby's place I was calling out her name
She says the only word she hears is when I say diamond ring

I'm standing on the edge of a worked up field praying for the rain to fall
I'm standing on the edge of a worked up field praying for the rain to fall
I pray and pray and pray all day
But it don't rain at all
I pray and pray and pray all day
But it don't rain at all
