Alison Krauss and Union Station - No Place To Hide lyrics

(bob lucas/belly boy music, bmi) When i was a child I used to love to watch the rain I'd stand under the downspout Let the water cool my brain I never thought to worry If the river rose too high That all the seeds we planted Would get washed out with the tide But now i am a man And i need a place to hide Chorus: But there's nowhere to run And there's no place to hide Where the water runs free And the mud starts to slide When i was a young man I could work through wind and rain I never thought to worry Had no reason to complain I thought that i was standing On a rock so firm and strong But it was easy then to see Just what was right And what was wrong But now i am a man I won't be hanging round too long When i was a child I used to love to watch the rain I'd stand under the downspout Let the water cool my brain I never thought to worry If the river rose too high And all the dreams we planted Would get washed out with the tide Chorus Where the water runs free And the mud starts to slide
