Tom Northcott – The Rainmaker lyrics
First day in August, last rain was in May.
When the Rainmaker came to Kansas in the middle of a dusty day.
The Rainmaker said to the people, "Tell me what u are prepared to pay"
The Rainmaker said to the people, "Well, I'll conjure up rain today."

90 degrees 'neath the trees where it's shady, hundred & 10 in the hot sun
Heat from the street burned the feet of the ladies, see how they run...

Called down the lightning, by a mystical name.
Then the Rainmaker called on the thunder and it suddenly began to rain.
Then the Rainmaker passed his hat to the people but the people all turned away.
Then the Rainmaker's eyes & the Kansas skies both became a darker grey.

First day in August, last rain was in May.
When the Rainmaker came to Kansas in the middle of a dusty day
Rainmaker smiled as he hitched up his wagon & w/o a wd he rode away.
Then the people of the town heard the sound of his laughter & they knew the rain had
Come to stay..

Rain rain, go away.
Come again another day...
