"Early Morning Rain" Lyrics

/ 5
Song updated, review now!
(Gordon Lightfoot)

(Four o'clock in the morning and it's been raining
Little puddles of water reflect a thousand pin points of color
As neon signs shine and glimmer down into them
There's a sad unshaven face looking back at me
From one of those little ponds that keeps askin'
How did I get here where can I go
And even if I got there this achin' in my heart would go with me.)

In the early mornin' rain with a dollar in my hand
And an achin' in my heart and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long long way from home and I miss my loved ones so
In the early mornin' rain with no place to go.

Out on runway No 9 big 7-0-7 set to go
But I'm stuck here in the grass where the cold wind blows
Now the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
Well there she goes my friend she's a rollin' now at last.

--- Instrumental ---

Hear the mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high
She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly
Where the mornin' rain don't fall and the sun always shine
She'll be flying o'er my home in about three hours time.

This ole airport's got me down it's no earthly good to me
'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground as cold and drunk as I can be
You can't jump a jet plane like you can an ol' freight train
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain...
