Lyrics
Long as I remember
The rain’s been comin’ down
Clouds of mystery pourin’
Confusion on the ground
Good men through the ages
Tryin’ to find the sun
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who’ll stop the rain?
I went down Virginia
Seekin’ shelter from the storm
Caught up in the fable
I watched the tower grow
Five years plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who’ll stop the rain?
Heard the singers playin’
How we cheered for more
The crowd had rushed together
They’re tryin’ to keep warm
Still the rain kept pourin’
Fallin’ on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who’ll stop the rain?
