hothouse flowers - hard rain (live in berlin, 1987) lyrics
[intro]
this is a song about living in poverty and cold and stuff like that
what?
[verse 1]
it’s a hard rain in the ghetto, baby
blues are gonna take their toll
it’s a hard rain in the ghetto, baby
blues are gonna take their toll
and this city’s full of heartache
remedy no man knows
[verse 2]
yeah, you’re livin’ by the people, baby
no time a+bein’ on your own
yeah, you’re livin’ by the people, baby
no time a+bein’ on your own, no
oh, it’s a hard rain in the ghetto, baby
blues are gonna take their toll, yeah, i say
[verse 3]
you may be lyin’ in the gutter
a man look down his nose on you
you may be dyin’ in the gutter
man look down his nose on you
oh, it’s a hard rain in the ghetto, baby
lord knows what else you can do
[verse 4]
oh, it’s a hard rain in the ghetto, baby
blues are gonna take their toll
it’s a hard rain in the ghetto, baby
blues are gonna take their toll
and this city’s full of heartache
remedy no man knows, ah
[outro]
okay
you’re a very good audience, you know
okay
