Chorus
Let the heavens send the rain on the desert,
Heaven send the rain.
Let the heavens send the rain on the desert,
Heaven send the rain.
Verse 1
The decked-out priests in there fancy robes,
Vestments of red & expensive clothes,
Sucking at the labor & the hard work of the poor,
While they're filling up there pockets & demand for more.
Saying, "We've got rules & our traditions,
And that's the way we want to run our religion.
So do what we want & what we want you to do,
And if you don't like that, we'll lean hard on you."
Repeat Chorus
Verse 2
I see a girl on a dusty road
From the land that they call Mexico,
Cryin' & tryin' as she reaches out a hand
To find someone to reach her land.
Can you hear him calling to come & help her now?
Because the lost there have been trodden & been beaten down.
He needs you to come & rescue them
Because the future of this land may well on you depend.
[Alternative Chorus]
Heaven send the rain,
Oh, come send the rain.
Heaven send the rain,
Oh, come send the rain.
