Rainman makes his pretty patterns
Up and down the street
I ask about his timing
But he doesn’t like to speak
I get a weather warning in my rental car
I should be out of here but I’m not getting far
I’m stuck with a girl like you down in Birmingham
In the stormy weather
I’m just waiting for the clouds to blow, for the rains to go
Feels like forever
I’m stuck here with a girl like you down in Birmingham
And the storm is a raging
I’m just watching while the clouds explode, staying on the road
While you watch me aging
I didn’t mean to spend a moment in this place
Alabama medicine turns hours into days
Ladies treat you kindly when you’re full of dollar bills
They wash the whiskey from your eyes with consummate skill
I’m stuck with a girl like you down in Birmingham
In the stormy weather
I’m just watching for the clouds to blow, for the rains to go
Feels like forever
I’m stuck here with a girl like you down in Birmingham
And the storm is a raging
I’m just waiting while the clouds explode, staying on the road
While you watch me aging
Thanks for the time that I get, yeah
Thank you for the blues
Thanks for a hole in the sky
The sun comes shining through
I’m stuck with a girl like you down in Birmingham
In the stormy weather
I’m just waiting for the clouds to blow, for the rains to go
Seems like forever
I’m stuck here with a girl like you down in Birmingham
And the storm is a raging
I’m just waiting while the clouds explode, staying on the road
While you watch me aging
Thanks for the time that I get, yeah
Thank you for the blues
Thanks for a hole in the sky
The sun comes shining through
