Verse 1
Well My Name Is Darwin Lyin
And I Work On The Grand Trunk Line
Movin’ Lumber Down At The Muir Station
Keeping All Of The Engines On Time
Verse 2
I Work For Mr. Blanchard
Though I Never Met The Man
I Take His Honest Wages
And I Come Home With Two Tired Hands
Chorus
And It Looks Like It's Raining
For The Third Time Today
And I Pray It Keeps Coming Down
Till’ The River
Takes Me Away
Verse 3
She Was Standing On The Platform
With A Postcard In Her Hand
Even Though My Shy Heart Was Racing
I Inquired Did She Have A Man
Verse 4
She Looked Down At The Walkway
And The Wind Danced In Her Hair
She Told Me She Was A Widow
As She Whispered A Silent Prayer
Chorus
And It Looks Like It's Raining
For The Third Time Today
And I Pray It Keeps Coming Down
Till’ The River
Takes Me Away
Verse 5
I Would Court Her Through The Autumn
Till’ Finally She Would Agree
We Were Married Down On The Maple River
Neath’ The Shade Of The Old Redbud Tree
Interlude
Verse 6
Most Days I Spent At The Parlor
And The Drink Got The Best Part Of Me
Till’ I Stumbled Alone To The Home That We Made
Just To Find She Decided To Leave
Verse 7
Now I Lay Here In This Gutter
While The Poison Rushes My Veins
And I Curse This God Forsaken Fever
That Could Drive Any Poor Man Insane
Chorus
And It Looks Like It's Raining
For The Third Time Today
And I Pray It Keeps Coming Down
Till’ The River
Takes Me Away
