Lyrics

ALL SHE KNOWS IS RAIN
(Lisa Carver/Cheley Tackett/Robert K. Wolf)
 
 Six years old watchin’ cartoons in a trailer reeks of cigarettes
Mama’s long gone and Daddy’s out cold on his cloud of barbiturates
And she’s right at home all alone
Ain’t no use to cry
 
When all you’ve ever known
Is broken glass & dust
You learn to say hello
But goodbye’s all you trust
How’s she s’posed to know not to run away
When all she knows is rain
 
Seventeen she learned fast slingin’ hash ain’t no ticket out
She rented smiles and slept her way right out of East Youngstown
But she pulls a storm
And makes it pour everywhere she goes
 
(Repeat Chorus)
 
I held the girl behind the smile we were sunshine for awhile
But she ain’t wired that way
 
Oooooohhhh
Ohhhhhhhhh
All She Knows Is Rain
(Carver/Tackett/Wolf 3/18/14)
 
Six years old watchin’ cartoons in a trailer reeks of cigarettes
Mama’s long gone and Daddy’s out cold on his cloud of barbiturates
And she’s right at home all alone
Ain’t no use to cry
 
When all you’ve ever known
Is broken glass & dust
You learn to say hello
But goodbye’s all you trust
How’s she s’posed to know not to run away
When all she knows is rain
 
Seventeen she learned fast slingin’ hash ain’t no ticket out
She rented smiles and slept her way right out of East Youngstown
But she pulls a storm
And makes it pour everywhere she goes
 
When all you’ve ever known
Is broken glass & dust
You learn to say hello
But goodbye’s all you trust
How’s she s’posed to know not to run away
When all she knows is rain
 
I held the girl behind the smile we were sunshine for awhile
But she ain’t wired that way
 
Oooooohhhh
Ohhhhhhhhh
(Repeat Chorus)
