Her face was bruised, and she kneeled to pray
She couldn't take it one more day
He's passed out cold from his drunken rage
Thunder roll, it's the final stage
Her shadow jumped, his lights went dim
Found herself standing over him
Heard the levee holding back the storm
Now, soon the river will be at her door
Still the rain
(Rain, rain, rain)
Still the rain came down
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Still the rain
(Rain, rain, rain)
Still the rain came down
Should she wake him or help him sleep
Open up the door, let that river creep
God fearing woman you know she had her doubts
But she knew it was her only way out
Still the rain
(Rain, rain, rain)
Still the rain came down
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Still the rain
(Rain, rain, rain)
Still the rain came down
She hears the moan, as the levee breaks
Knows at last this is no mistake
All night 'round she starts to grin
Watching God wash away her sins
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh)
Still the rain
(Rain, rain, rain)
Still the rain came down
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Still the rain
(Rain, rain, rain)
Still the rain came down
(Down, down, down)
Thunder roll
(Ooh)
Thunder roll, it's the final stage
(Ooh)
Still the rain
(Ooh)
Still the rain
Still the rain came down (Down, down, down)
Yeah
