A LITTLE RAIN (Tom Waits/K. Brennan) [guitar arrangment by AL#13]
(from a live version)
capo on 1st
Where the Ice Man's mule...is parked outside the bar
Where a man with missing fingers...plays a strange guitar
And the German dwarf...dances with the butcher's son
Tonight a little rain never hurt no one
They're dancing on the roof...and the ceiling's coming down
And I sleep with my shovel...and my leather gloves
And a little trouble...makes it worth the going
Tonight a little rain never hurt no one
Oh the world is round...so I'll go around
You must risk something that matters
Oh my hands are strong...I'll take any man here
If it's worth the going...it's worth the ride
She was 15 years old...and she never seen the ocean
She climbed into a van...with a vagabond
And the last thing she said was "I love you mom."
Tonight a little rain never hurt no one
And a little rain never hurt no one
