Rainy Day Man

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 feeling 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  he don't like sunshine
He don't chase 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 just don't belong  You can't hide the truth with a happy song
And since you knew where you stood all along  just go call up your rainy day man
Now simple pleasures they all evade you  store-bought treasures  Lord none can save you
Look for signs to ease the pain  I said ask again  go on and pray for rain
It looks like another fall  Your good 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 asking just to look up your rainy day man
