Early Morning Rain — текст песни (Roy Drusky)

(Four o`clock in the morning and it`s been raining
Little paddles of water reflect the thousand thin 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 asking how did I get here where can I go
And even if I got there this aching in my heart would go with me)

In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand
And an aching 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 morning 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 rolling now at last
[ guitar ]
Hear that mighty engines roar see the silver bird on high
She`s away and westward bound far above the clouds she`ll fly
Where the morning rain don`t fall and the sun always shine
She`ll be flying o`er my home in about three hours time
This old 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 big jet plane like you can an old freight train
So I`d best be on my way in the early morning rain
