Dave Dudley - Drought lyrics

(You can dam out the water and shut the wind out) But a man ain't been born who can destroy a drought There's a hot screaming wind at my door but I just don't care anymore There's a crop k**ing drought on the way and my good woman she left me today Oh she stayed just as long as she could but then the farm has not treated us good She begged me to pack up and go but then farming is all that I know You can dam out the water... She cried as if I were to blame but the Lord knows I can't make it rain There's a hot screaming sun up in the sky it's so still I can hear the gra** die So I'll wait for the coolness of dark and bear up to this pain in my heart And I'll pray with the coming of each dawn that this crop k**ing drought will be gone You can dam out the water...
