Here Comes The Rain

Here Comes The Rain

Painting by Jack Terry

 (Verse according to RWHollar)

Lightin’ a shuck, we’re runnin’ hard for shelter;

Here comes the rain pourin’ down helter skelter.

Thunder cracks, lightnin’ flashes and steed bolts with power;

The line shack’s in view, but further ‘an I remember.

Yellow slicker a’ flyin’, rain beaten our face;

Horse and rider in dead run, to find a dry place.

Beatin’ hooves, mud flyin’, soaked through from the storm;

Got one thing in mind. Get safe, dry and warm.
