Can’t
Stop The Downpour
( words
and music by Peggy Mann)
He used to know her, she used to know
him too
He knew everything about her
And she knew him too… through and
through
But the years went by and there were
lies
And there was lots of cryin too
So what are you gonna, what are you
gonna
What are ya, what are ya, what are ya
gonna do?
It’s stormy weather, the wind is blowin
too
The clouds have gathered, the sky has
turned dark blue
There’s been a lot of trouble and
there’s been a lot of pain
And she can’t stop the downpour, but
she’ll walk with you… Through the rain, through the rain, through the rain
He works his program, she works her
program too
And they’re kneeling by the bedside
just prayin…
Just trying to make it through
And there’s friends who care and
friends who shared
And some of them have been through this
too
So what are you gonna, what are you
gonna
What are ya, what are ya, what are ya
gonna do?
The skies are clearing, the sun is
breaking through
But the ground’s still wet and God’s not
through with you
There’s been a lot of trouble and
there’s been a lot of pain
And she can’t stop the downpour, but
she’ll walk with you… Through the rain, through the rain, through the rain
