Long as I remember the rain 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 Year 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, tryin` to keep warm
Still the rain kept pourin`, fallin` on my ears
And I wonder, still I wonder, who`ll stop the rain?
