Lyrics:
(Michael Timmins)
The flies have quit their buzzing
Even Bear has stopped his barking
They all sense something brewing
Up the James and headed this way
Bobby sips his morning coffee
Says 'Have you finished with the funnies?
Looks like a storm's coming honey
Guess we'll have to stay in bed today'
I've heard that into every life
A little of it must fall
If there's any truth to the saying
Lord, let it be a southern rain
Marie was born in Macon, Georgia
She met a west coast lawyer
He plucked that sweet magnolia
And carried her to the hills of West L.A
She says 'I never thought I'd tire of a dollar
But this life has grown so hollow
Every night there's lipstick on his collar
And every morning I wash it away'
She heard that into every life
A little of it must fall
So she spends her evenings praying
For a little of that southern rain
Cars alive on city streets
Of sparkling black water
Like waves beneath my window
Never break just roll away
Tonight, this rain will be my lullaby
These cars, my dreams
To carry me home to stay
The wipers beat a rhythm
Truck spray obscures my vision
But I'm closing in on my destination
Two more hours and I'll be at your door
And it will never cease to amaze me
How a little rain can drive folks crazy
When I'd trade all my blue skies gladly
For your blue eyes, crooked smile
And a steady downpour
I've heard that into every life
A little of it must fall
But you'll never catch me complaining
About too much of that southern rain - Hudba
I saw this live in 1991 and believe me the finale was one of the most powerful musical experiences I've ever experienced.
Great song......"like sparkling black waters, like waves beneath my window, never break just roll away."
Beautiful.
i love this band. i love everything about them.
and Margo is my biggest musical crush all-time.
One of the greatest song endings ever. She just opens her mouth and a beautiful sound comes out. All the band has to do is let it happen.
Such a beautiful voice !!! So smooth !!!!
Margo, the looks of your fave 40s cool movie star & the voice like them 60"s french chanteuses. Aint she just brilliant ?
My signed copy of 'Black Eyed Man' is one of my most prized possessions. I've never 'waited outside' for a band, but I did 20 years ago in Ann Arbor and acted like a total weirdo, all nervous and shit. But Margo and Michael were really gracious. Got rid of most of my 'media', but my BEM is still on my shelf. Hopefully everyone has that piece of music that just speaks to them and makes them feel the feels. For me, it's this album.
An acquaintance of mine asked which Junkies album he should start with. I expected he'd had people steering him toward Trinity Sessions ( which I find a little too subdued ). This album , and especially this track, do it for me; I think he likes it.
Lincoln MacEachern I would agree with that. I think it’s nice and varied and solid all the way through.
Don’t get me wrong, I like Trinity Sessions, but it’s...shall we say ‘dark’.
@@AndyTanguay Dark is cool.
One of first CD’s I never bought, during an epic road trip from Peterborough to points east. Even Montreal in Feb is a joyous time if you have the right companions.
Margo voice is pure velvet!!!
My favorite poem .
What a sound.
you definately don't have writers bloch. Very good work cowboy junkies. This is the way music is suppossed to be developed, formed then put together.
This is one of my favourites!
margo's vocals are the sexiest.
The Hip "borrowed " that guitar lick a year later in Courage!
Yeah I hear that too.
YEAH!
I LOVE YOU MARGO!
sweet times
"...FOR A LITTLE OF THAT SOUTHERN RAIN.AKHORAHIL..""And HIS REALM of CIRIATANDOR.#100% TRAINING .

Yep she opened her trap and wow sounds good.
What??! The awesome guitar solo is missing??! I love Margo but that makes me so sad!!
Yep! I was expecting it too... Frustrating.
