Lynyrd Skynyrd - Raining In My Heartland Lyrics
Mud-covered cornfields starin' out my back door
The barn's leaning over now and that deer don't run no more
So much life before, now that dream is gone
When the factory burned down I moved up to the city
And the good times froze when that door closed
Main Street's still there but the stores are all empty
The car lot where my daddy worked is dirt and stone
The only thing that comes through here
Is stormy weather
And it's raining
It's raining in my heartland
We're packing them boxes for something better
And the photograph of this house that we're standin' in now
Let's stop by the church where we got married
Walk out back where your grandma's buried
And say goodbye one last time
Main Street's still there but the stores are all empty
The car lot where my daddy worked is dirt and stone
The only thing that comes through here
Is stormy weather
And it's raining
It's raining in my heartland
Some dreams just stop growing where you plant them
You gotta count your blessings and be happy that you've had them
Let's grab a shovel baby, dig us a new life
Main Street's still there but the stores are all empty
The car lot where my daddy worked is dirt and stone
The only thing that comes through here
Is stormy weather
And it's raining
It's raining in my heartland
Yeah, it's rainin'
It's raining in my heartland
Oh my heartland
Yeah my heartland
It's rainin'

MAAAIN STREET STILL THERE BUT THE STORES ARE ALL EMPTYYY
Lynyrd Skynyrd kicks ass!!!
aaawww man! this is sweeeet stuff!
Very good song
The description tho! It's short, sweet, and to the point. XD
Cool! Just something I love about the US of A. Always been an outstanding ally to me. Well done boys. Respect. Si from England
class :)
@10yearvet im still wondering why them CIA haven't kill any bad people yet
what can i say, my teacher says that the CIA is the most evil organization in the world
@Airsoftslave Thanks man!
I don't wanna blame anyone or start an argue about who's guilty for what is happening in my country, the both sides of the border have their own responsabilities and is up to them to do their job in order to restore peace, but it is obvious that behind all the blood spiling lie the interests of those who control the power.
And FYI, I don't hate USA, I met some of your peaple and believe me, they are one of the most kind hearted people in the world.
Peace brother! :)
Holly shit! This song really describes our situation here in my state. Nuevo Leon went from a first world state to a nest of rats, killers and corruption. I live in Cadereyta, a little town located 50km to the south of Monterrey and believe me, this song fits perfectly to what's going on in my town becaus of the violence of the narco gangs.
I just hope this comes to an end soon, i just want my life back and my people to be happy again.
Greetings to everyone!!
@crazyhorse783 its down half a step so e flat.
Prima di ascoltare questa canzone non ne avevo una preferita... e non si trovano nemmeno le tab per guitar pro...
@TheMariachi7 we bring it on ourselves sadly,china is the new superpower,but ill be damned if i subject myself to thier rule :/
The guitar solo just gives me goosebumps. Such a great song to blast while driving the countryside :)
@crazyhorse783
The other songs on God and Guns are standard, so I'm assuming this is aswell, dont take my word for it, but a guess. Have fun! :)
this music make me cry :,)
@redneckjon2000 the special CD has this song, Bang Bang, Hobo Kinda man and a few live songs on it aswell
I love this CD - Excellent - Only from a Southener to the rest of the world!
@TheJoniscool - it's on their deluxe cd with "Bang Bang" and "Hobo Kinda Man"
This song could've been written by my dad. I think about him and his hometown and this song nails it.
I got the regular cd, so I've never this before. Thanks for posting.
This is a great album.
double dawg dynomite!! rock on skynyrd
This song demonstrates why this band is one of the greatest ever. They write songs that speak to our hearts. God bless Lynyrd Skynyrd and may they always carry on for all of us, whether we are here, or in heaven.
