Lyrics
TEXAS NEEDS RAIN
VERSE:
We were really dirt poor on the summer day I saw that Flyer bike
I was totally convinced my heart would break if I couldn?t ride it home that night
I rehearsed my case all the way to the house where my momma was makin? bread
And with a tear in my eye I asked her to buy it
And this is what she said
CHORUS:
The baby needs a bottle
And sister needs shoes
Daddy needs some peace
And a little less bad news
The dog needs a bone
And the cat needs a name
Momma needs some sugar
And TEXAS NEEDS RAIN
VERSE:
When I grew up I had a whole lot of money, nearly nothin? I couldn?t buy
I fell in love with a dream come true with another man on her mind
I felt just like a little kids again wantin? somethin? I couldn?t have
And I couldn?t help thinkin? how wise my momma was
The day she said
CHORUS:
The baby needs a bottle
And sister needs shoes
Daddy needs some peace
And a little less bad news
The dog needs a bone
And the cat needs a name
Momma needs some sugar
And TEXAS NEEDS RAIN
LIFT:
My little girl just came to me with her 10th request today
And I?d love to give the world to her, but sometimes I need to say
CHORUS:
