He came ridin' in on the sunrise of a hot west Texas day
A fancy man in a painted wagon with some fancy things to say
Looks like you folks need some water, well water is my game
And for the small price of $100 I betcha I can make it rain

Step back non believers or the rain will never come
Somebody start that fire a-burning somebody beat the drum
You know some may think I'm crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over you folks are gonna see some rain

They all just stood there a-staring trying to believe
But there was one named Lizzie Cooper who said he was a lying cheat
You say you call yourself a rainman, well you oughta be ashamed
Starting all these people dreamin', thinking you can make it rain

Step back non believers or the rain will never come
Somebody keep that fire a-burning somebody beat the drum
You know some may think I'm crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over you folks are going see some rain

Hey Lizzie, well a mans got to have a dream
And if you can't walk on the inside with me, I'll meet you in between
Oh come with me Lizzie and the stars will right your name
And if you still think I'm lying to you, look younder there comes the rain

Step back non believers for the rain will never come
Somebody keep that fire a-burning somebody beat the drum
You know some folks think I'm crazy for making all these claims
But I swear before this day is over you folks are going see some rain

Repeat and fade

When I was a child down in South Carolin'
Soon as the Saturday sun went on down.
My folks and sister would go,
And leave me home all alone,
Goin' to that big square dance in town.

Well my old radio
would play that old Opry show
So I never got lonesome or blue
I'd fall asleep in my chair
and dream that I was right there
Just a'singin' the whole night thru.

When my folks would come home
They'd be hummin' a song,
Mama'd smile and say child don'tcha know
There ain't a thing in this world
To make you fall in love girl.
Like the San Antonio Stroll.

Well the day finally come
When my momma said hun
It's 'bout time you came with us as well
Well I had me a time,
Yes, I danced all night
'Till they rang that old crack midnight bell

Then the lights went down low
The fiddler picked up his bow
And he played something stately and slow
And my sister Eileen and her husband to be
They held hands and began to stroll.

I've been away for awhile,
But it still brings a smile
When I think of the way that it goes
Now I'll sing it to you
Just so we both can do
That old San Antonio Stroll

Yes, I'll sing it to you
Just so we all can do
That old San Antonio Stroll.

Don't believe my heart can stand another you
I need someone who'll be gentle, kind and true.
So go your way I've had enough
The game you play is just to rough.
I don't believe my heart can stand another you.

Of all the people in the world to be standing at my door
Telling me she left me, you know the one I left you for
I sat down and thought it over now I've come to this conclusion
Don't believe my heart can stand another you

I've tried every way I know to put you out of myself
I've been as far down as my knees
But so far it has been no help
And with you already here what I must say get complicated
I don't believe my heart can stand another you.

Don't believe my heart can stand another you
I need someone who'll be gentle, kind and true.
So go your way I've had enough
The game you play is just to rough.
I don't believe my heart can stand another you.

I don't believe my heart can stand another you.

Well, I been watchin' you cryin'
When you do, I just feel like dyin'.
Well, I could give you somethin' that would ease your mind.
Let me give it to you,
Just a little bit would do you,
It's somethin' you been needin' for a long, long time.

Here's some love, take a little bit of it home with you.
Keep it close to you and save it for a rainy day, hey, hey, hey.
Here's some love, take a little bit of it home with you.
It'll grow with you and some day you can bring it back to stay.

Don't you keep me waiting now,
What's the use in hesitating?
You know as well as me, it's what you're looking for, yeah.
Put your lips on mine now,
We can make it feel so fine now.
You never have to be without it any more.

Here's some love, take a little bit of it home with you.
Keep it close to you and save it for a rainy day, hey, hey, hey.
Here's some love, take a little bit of it home with you, baby
It'll grow with you and some day you can bring it back to stay.

Here's some love, take a little bit of it home with you.
Keep it close to you and save it for a rainy day, hey, hey, hey.
Here's some love, take a little bit of it home with you.
It'll grow with you and some day you can bring it back to stay.

Standin' beside the ocean, lookin' across the water
Everything is beautiful here but I still don't feel like I ought ta
Things we wanted not so long ago well I've got 'em all now but I aint got you no more
But I Remember the way you held me and all the sweet things we used say
when we were two young lovers dancing the night away

I remember everything the way you wore your hair
The looks your body told me seem to float right through the air
I look so funny dancing but you loved me any how
I wish I could find somebody to love me like that now
But I remember the way you held me all the sweet things we used to say When we were two yound lovers dancing the night away
Let me see you dance, let me see you dance, oh baby let me see you dance

Standin' beside the ocean throwing rocks out in the bay
I should look for companionship but it just gets in my way
Lights are a glittering all along the shore
People dancin' there, I don't dance there any more
But I remember the way you held me and all the Sweet thing we used say, when we were two young lovers dancin' the night away
Let me see you dance, let me see you dance, oh baby let me see you dance

If you've got a road map of Texas,
You can see that it's a wide open state.
From Amarillo down to Boulder,
You can bet that it's a honky-tonky place.

They might like to rock 'n roll in Dallas,
Or disco down on Galveston Bay.
But when God made them West Texas cowboys,
He gave them the Pecos Promenade.

Lead off with the Cotton-Eyed Joe,
Buckin' winged, and heel and toe,
Hold me close for the Pecos Promenade.
Big sign hangin' by the door,
Sawdust on an old dance floor.
Tip your hat for the Pecos Promenade.

When the sun starts goin' down on the prairie,
And the starlight, falls on the state.
That's when this cowgirl needs me a cowboy,
To do the Pecos Promenade.

Tonight's the first I saw him,
We can hear those twin fiddles play.
Well Houston starts to feel like Lonestar heaven,
As we dance the Pecos Promenade.

Lead off with the Cotton-Eyed Joe,
Buckin' winged, and heel and toe,
Hold me close for the Pecos Promenade.
Tip your hat for the Pecos Promenade

That's when this cowgirl needs a cowboy,
To do the Pecos Promenade.

I don't know where to start
Now that we're fallen apart.
How can we talk to heart to heart you're so far away what can I say.
I've tried to under-stand but things got so out of hand
Held out as long as I can Now I'm on the telephone saying.

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

Now that we're on the line
I'll tell you what's on my mind
The love we're trying to hide.
Well, it's suffering from to much pride.
When will we see the end to this game where nobody wins
For as long as nobody gives in It will go on and on and on.

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

Instead of breaking up
Instead of breaking up

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.
