Hasn't It Rained - Paul Kelly

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained a long, long time

We liked it well at first

But it turned bad and then it got worse

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained a long, long time

We hauled and hammered wood

Racing hard against the flood

The water rose above the trees

Now our boat is shipshape tight

It’s gonna see us through alright

Though the world has now become a mighty sea

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Forty days and forty nights I believe it’s rained

They came in two by two

All our cargo and our crew

They came in two by two all day and night

Every kind and every worth

Of all that moves upon the earth

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained a long long time

The captain’s on my case

O, he’s keeping on my case

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained a long, long time

We’re high above the hills

Above the drownded with no gills

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained a long, long time

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Forty days and forty nights I believe it’s rained

Now there’s blue sky up above

We’re all waiting on the dove

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained a long long time

Now the captain’s rolling drunk

Singing naked on his bunk

Are we ever gonna see dry land again

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Oh Lord, hasn’t it rained

Forty days and forty nights I believe it’s rained
