Pray for Rain Lyrics by The Demon Drink

Highway Robbery

0

[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
Well, his head's on fire
It exploded in flames
Flat out on the bar stool
With his cane champagne
Stood up for the national anthem
He took off like a wheel of Catherines
Burned out like station wagon
Set up like a rat in a drain
Shook his head, he don't know nothin'
Better pray for rain
[Verse 2]
Well, his ears are burnin'
Smoke in his eyes
Coulda left the engine runnin'
Could be runnin' when the engine dies
Hang on for that cool water
Back off, she's a landlord's wife
He's got no key to the roller
He ain't yet the age to drive
Go home, man, the party's over
They'll burn you alive
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
She laid a dollar on the table
Put a king in his hand
Stuck a monkey in a barrel
Burned the devil on a three-card scam
He can't keep his hands from shakin'
She's as cool as lemonade
He can feel the payback comin'
Round the mountain, here she comes again
He can feel the payback comin'
Better pray for rain
[Harmonica Solo]
[Verse 4]
Well, he don't drink whiskey
No, he don't drink beer
So what's he drinkin' in a hurry
Like he wants outta here?
Says he's leavin' at the stroke of ten
Show me the money if he lasts till then
Show me a ticket for the gravy train
He's on the dancefloor stumblin' in
She's got the riddle that'll blow his brains
You better pray for rain
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 5]
He's a dog in the window
He's a birdwing fly
If he's gonna wear the halo
Better change the tie
She's a honey with a green dress on
Cat got the money for his eyes and tongue
She's got you, man, give it away
You oughta see her with the lovelight on
She's got you, brother, what do you say?
You better pray for rain
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
Better pray for rain (Better pray for rain)
Pray for rain (For rain)
Better pray for rain (Better pray for rain)
Pray for rain (For rain)
Pray for rain (For rain)
Pray for rain (Pray for rain)
You better pray for rain (Pray for rain)
Pray for rain (Pray for rain)
