up above my shoulder the ragged rooftops rise

casting shadows over streets they seem to despise

(Chorus:) come on, come on, wind and rain

i know the sun will shine again

till then my lady and my Lord will keep me sane



i went down to the dead lake shore to see what i could see

along the breeze came, away my cap went, my head it was set free



(chorus)



and i hear a far away tune come drifting through the gray

it clears a path before my feet, it makes my fingers play



(chorus)



(Chorus:) come on, come on, soot and storm

i know the sun will break your arm

till then my lady and my Lord will keep me warm
