Write my mother, tell her where I've been,
Go call her sister, tell her what you've seen;
I fell down to darkness
Let it rain down, rain down over me.
Over me.
Lead me to the water, give me one last drink,
Pour me that whisky; I'll show you where I sinned.
It's time to give it up,
Won't you rain down, rain down over me.
Yeah, over me.
On the seventh day I was burning like the sun,
Nowhere left to go; the Devil he had won.
He said to me, it's going to rain down, rain down over me.
Over me.
Lead me by the hand, walk me to the light,
Please make this quick 'cause time ain't on my side.
When the lights start fading, it's going to rain down, rain down over me.
Yeah, over me.
Rain down, rain down over me!
Rain down, rain down over me.
Rain down, rain down, rain down, rain down over me.
Over me.
