The Mountain Goats
Hardpan Song
[Verse 1]
The daylily withers, the heat kills off all the grain
Just when you think it's never gonna rain
The rain comes, the rain comes
It floods the town, kills everybody in it
[Verse 2]
The dog runs in circles, parolees all skip town
Heat goes on forever and ever and ever, shows no signs of slowing down
Then the rain comes, the rain comes
It shows no signs of stopping
