Rainy Day Man

What good is that happy lie? All you wanted from the start was to cry, girl It looks like another fall Your friends, they don't seem to help at all Now when you're feeling kind of cold and small Just look up your rainy day man It does you no good to pretend, child You've made a hole much too big to mend And it looks like you lose again, my friend So go on home and look up your rainy day man Now rainy day man don't like sunshine (sunshine) He don't chase no rainbows He don't need good times, no (good times) Grey days rolling Then you'll see him I said empty feeling Lord, now you need him All those noble thoughts, they don't belong Can't hide the truth with a happy song And since you knew where you stood all along Just call on your rainy day man Now simple pleasures, they all evade you Store-bought treasures, Lord, none can save you, no, now Look for signs to ease the pain I said ask again Go on and pray for rain It looks like another fall Your friends, they don't seem to help at all Now when you're feeling kind of cold and small Just look up your rainy day man All I'm asking just to look up your rainy day man
