slow, slow, slow
the dog day drags along
remembering the friends who've come and gone
down the road tempers runnin hot
but somethin sweet's stirrin in your pot
it's what you got that keeps me keeping on
went to the river and it looked like rain
i crossed the water and it looked like rain
can't find the use in taking
no time for excuses
waitin for the rain to fall
so long you feel you're not gonna make it thru another day
so long you'd rather be
anywhere but here, wastin away
thinkin bout tomorrow
and how slow the time goes
waitin for the rain to fall
it's the middle of September
and it's still hotter than I can remember
everybody's talkin bout how's it keep on gettin worse
but time only time will tell
time only time will tell
if one day soon that bubble gonna burst
went to the river and it looked like rain
i crossed the water and it looked like rain
turn on the radio
sit and watch the clouds roll
waitin for the rain to fa
