Dan Mooney - Portland, Oregon
Seven lonely days, and a dozen towns ago, I reached out one
night and you were gone, I don't know why you'd run, what
you're running to or from, all I know is I want to bring you
home.
So I'm walking in the rain, thumbing for a ride, on this
lonely Kentucky back road, I've loved you much too long,
my loves too strong, to let you go never knowing what went
wrong.
(Chorus)
Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, and up aheads another
town that I'll go walking through, with the rain in
my shoes, searching for you, in the cold Kentucky
rain, in the cold Kentucky rain.
Showed your photograph, to some old gray bearded men, sitting
on a bench outside a general store, they said yes, she's
been here, but their memory wasn't clear, was it yesterday,
no wait, the day before.
Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked where you
bound for on such a cold dark afternoon, as we drove on
through the rain, as he listened, I explained, and he left me
with a prayer that I'd find you.
