MONTGOMERY IN THE RAIN

YOU DON’T HAVE TO HIDE YOUR BABY,
You don’t have to go get no gun
How can blame me for things I ain’t ever done
I used to live here, but now I’ve come back again
Just to stop for a while and to see how things might have been
I had to come back to remember the joy and the pain
And if it’s alright with you before I get back on the train
I just want to see Montgomery in the rain.
ROUND THESE STREETS AND OLD HOUSES
Are a whole lot of changes I been through
From the top of the town to feelin’ down to washing cars and
Shining shoes.
I once met a woman here with ways like I’ve never seen
And we used to ramble from here to old New Orleans
I had to come back to remember the joy and the pain
But it won’t be long til I’m gone cause it ain’t the same
But I did want to see Montgomery in the rain.
I’VE JUST COME BACK HERE TO STARE at an old window pane
For one last look before you tear it all down with your crane
You don’t have to hide your bay, you don’t have to go get no gun
Don’t you stare like I’m crazy as if I was Hank’s only son
I had to come back to remember the joy and the pain
But it won’t be long til I’m gone cause it ain’t the same
So if it’s alright with you before I get back on the train
I’m gonna go out to Hank’s tombstone and cry up a
Thunderstorm chain.
But I did want to see Montgomery in the rain.
