A Little Rain lyrics
by Tom Waits



The Ice Man's mule is parkedOutside the barWhere a man with missing fingersPlays a strange guitarAnd the German dwarfDances with the butcher's sonAnd a little rain never hurt no oneAnd a little rain never hurt no oneThey're dancing on the roofANd the ceiling's coming downI sleep with my shovel and my leather glovesA little trouble makes it wurth the goingAnd a little rain never hurt no oneThe world is roundAnd so I'll go aroundYou must risk something that mattersMy hands are strongI'll take any man hereIf it's worth the goingIt's worth the rideShe was 15 years oldAnd never seen the oceanShe climbed into a vanWith a vagabondAnd the last theing she saidWas, "I love you mom."And a little rainNever hurt no oneAnd a little rainNever hurt no one
