Rain King - Blue Dogs

All other instruments of faith and sex and God in the belly of a black winged

Bird

Don’t try to bleed me.

'Cause I’ve been here before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of a Queen.

I belong anywhere but in between

She’s been lying.

I’ve been thinking.

And I am the Rain King

I said Mama, Mama, Mama, why am I so alone?

I can’t go outside.

I’m scared I might not make it home

I’m alive, I’m alive, but I’m sinking in

If there’s anyone at home at your place, darlin', why don’t you invite me in?

Don’t try to bleed me.

'Cause I’ve been there before and I deserve a little

More

I belong in the service of the Queen.

I belong anywhere but in between

She’s been lying.

I’ve been sinking.

And I am the Rain King

Hey, I only want the same as anyone.

Henderson is waiting for the sun

Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends.

After all the dreaming I come

Home again

When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)

I think of dying.

Lay me down in a field of flame and heather

Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged

Bird

Don’t try to bleed me.

'Cause I’ve been here before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen.

I belong anywhere but in between

She’s been lying.

I’ve been drinking.

And I am the Rain King

Well I said that I am the Rain King.

Well I said, I, I, I, I, I, Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well I am the Rain King.

Yeeeeaaaah!
