Rainy Day Man

Rainy Day Man - James Taylor

Lyrics by：James Vernon Taylor

Composed by：James Vernon Taylor

What good is that happy lie

All you wanted from the start was to cry girl

It looks like another fall

Your friends they don't seem to help at all

Now when you're feelin' kind of cold and small

Just look up your rainy day man

It does you no good to pretend child

You've made a hole much too big to mend

And it looks like you lose again my friend

So go on home and look up your rainy day man

Now rainy day man don't like sunshine

He don't chase no rainbows

He don't need good times no

Grey days rolling then you'll see him

I said empty feeling Lord now you need him

All those noble thoughts they don't belong

Can't hide the truth with a happy song

And since you knew where you stood all along

Just the call on your rainy day man

Now simple pleasures they all evade you

Store bought treasures Lord none can save you no now

Look for signs to ease the pain

I said ask again go on and pray for rain

It looks like another fall

Your friends they don't seem to help at all

Now when you're feeling kind of cold and small

Just look up your rainy day man

All I'm askin' just to look up your rainy day man
