Tom Waits — A Little Rain for Clyde

Well, the ice man's mule is parked outside the bar Where a man with missing fingers plays a strange guitar And the German dwarf dances with the butcher's son And tonight, a little rain never hurt no one Well, they're dancing on the roof and the ceiling's coming down And I sleep with my shovel and my leather gloves And a little trouble makes it worth the going And a little rain never hurt no one Oh, the world is round and I'll go around You must risk something that matters Oh, my hands are strong, I'll take any man here If it's worth the going, it's worth the ride She was fifteen years old and she'd never seen the ocean She climbed into a van with a vagabond And the last thing she said was "I love you, Mom" And a little rain never hurt no one And a little rain never hurt no one
