Waits, Tom - Make It Rain Lyrics
She took all my money
And my best friend
You know the story
Here it comes again
I have no pride
You gotta make it rain
Make it rain!
Since you're gone
Deep inside it hurts
I'm just another sad guest
On this dark earth
I want to believe
In the mercy of the world again
The nite's too quiet
Stretched out alone
I need the whip of thunder
And the wind's dark moan
I'm not Able, I'm just Cain
Open up the heavens
Make it rain!
I'm close to heaven
Crushed at the gate
They sharpen their knives
On my mistakes
What she done, you can't give it a name
You gotta make it rain
Make it rain, yeah!
Without her love
Without your kiss
Hell can't burn me
More than this
I'm burning up all this pain
Put out the fire
Make it rain!
I'm born to trouble
I'm born to fate
Inside a promise
I can't escape
It's the same old world
But nothing looks the same
Make it rain! [2x]
Got to make it rain
Make it rain
You got to make it rain
Got to make it rain
You got to...
I stand alone here! [2x]
Sing it...
Make it rain! [2x]

Drinking that fire gasoline i see,

Beautiful

Great song definitely one of my favourites
"Songs to Garrote People to" Vol. 1, Track 4
He survived 69 years of being Tom Waits. Now comes the rest. Make it rain.
Feel the anger. Feel the pain. Cathartic for me.
never can enough of tom waits haha, AWESOME !@!!
omfg so goooooooooooood
The voice of a old Viking warrior :D
God bless! this is a great song with a great lyrics, it makes feel the pain and the struggle to carry on.
I feel more cured by this desperate tone than by 100 contemporary love songs, full of self-pity and fake emotions. Make It Rain!
It's the same ol' world, but nothing looks the same...
There's Tom Waits and then there's all other types of music I'll take Tom Waits please
Phuk this is Phattt.
Love Tom Waits' eccentricity, this is definitely one of his songs that I really like.
over the driest earth

Once again way better than the remaster. They butchered the entire album with that shitty remaster. Here's an idea let's take all the dirt and grunge off of real gone and make the audio nice an clear. Morons.
This song fucking RULES.
Story of my life
One of my favorite Tom Waits songs. Sounds like he's straight up preaching with that deep, scratchy growl. Long live Tom.
Jesus Christ, doesn't get much better than waits for song writing. Truly unique, that's rare
My cover of this great song Hope you ll like it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mE7NNDQRj7E&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR1zPakCGaxA2eH22Te0cyMJDEQ7ZAaq6OjlyxS4zsNr8CJnnwWTA_p9Ass

Tom's vocals are as raw as the dirt of an open grave.
But not as raw as the raw-dogging I gave your mom.
Marc Ribot's guitar playing on this whole album is God Tier shit
Oh yeah!!! This is just what I need to get me going. Love you Tom Waits. Now if I could just get rid of these ads.
Pay the rent man
Dope as fuck
What kind of music is this Im fucken loven it
When I'm sitting outside heaven I wonder how many other Cains I'll meet.
Maestro Ribot! <3
Grassy, Gritty and Poetic at the same time. This's simply a Masterpiece on its own.
You are fkn best. Can I be your guru?
I can't believe that there are people who think Ed Sheeran made this song famous! there are people who think that Ed Sheeran is actually more significant than this living god of music!
This song made outside cats come to my house.
Am I the only one who loves all Waits's songs without being drunk?
Tom is 1. .......then all others......👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Everytime i put this song in my friend's houses i end up wasted as hell
Move to Scotland Tom believe me it rains all the fucking time
Impossible to dislike.
pure gold
Marc Ribot boys and girls... Marc Ribot BMF
all these comments. we can't all be wrong...can we?
This is what I call good old fashion blues. If you are lucky, you will find yourself at a juke joint down south with a good bottle of tequila while listen to Tom Waits.
Here here I totally agree, tom waits you and me !!
Heavens gate will be guarded by a redeemed yellow dog
So how am I supposed to give up drinking?
Writing as an amateur theologian, the Theology of this song is impeccable, truly an amazing song.
All the alcohol references people are making in the comments section are hilarious--Tom has been sober for years!
Matt von D Yeah, well the world will never be sober.
MARC RIBOT !!!!
spectacular! Tom is better through the years!
bad mutha fukka
So I glad I discovered this guy. My 3 year old daughter randomly clicked on where ever I lay my head on spotify. I haven't looked back since.
Marc Ribot on guitar?
Make it rain ! J adore
pint of whiskey... not enough coke and only a few cigarettes left. send me to heaven Tom.
...i quit drinkin ...,fortunately i can still cet wasted on Mr Tom Waits!..rainmakers rock!
Sharpen their knives on my mistakes
Salty bet !!
Don't know how you could put any more power in your voice.
prostrate yourselves people and recognize! pardon me please. ..
Saw Tom live 3 times many years ago. He got off his touring bus and walk up to and was messing with use. One of my all time favorites
რა წვიმა შე მუტელო, მზეზე იმღერე მე შენს დედას ვტენე მუტელში
rain falling down, deeper than any ocean.
delete your comments, I wanna stand alone here.
this song deserves a few more million views
I thin TW is an acquired taste, and also we usually put time and "discover" Tom Waits songs one after the other, this should be partly why it doesn't reach a wider audience.
First Tom Waits song I ever heard, and I must admit it totally blew my mind. This is the very definition of badass.
@Bruno Aziz Haha, you're damn right I did. I actually heard it a few months ago, and since then he's definitely become one of my top 5 favourite artists.
Tom Laveign I agree!
Tom Laveign down in the hole !!
Well said, Bruno! Lol
Tom Laveign You got that right! It’s feels like you’re getting scolded. Best vocals ever .
make it a storming Rain ... man
tTom Waits listen to the brother
Cigarette smoke, dive-beer-smells, and working-man grit is coming out of my speakers. It's awesome.
Blue collar wisdom . Tom Watts does it good .
love the name of the channel
I love the grit of this
She took all my money
And my best friend
You know the story
Here it comes again
I have no pride
I have no shame
You gotta make it rain
Make it rain
Since you're gone
Deep inside it hurts
I'm just another sad guest
On this dark earth
I want to believe
In the mercy of the world again
Make it rain, make it rain
The night's too quiet
Stretched out alone
I need the whip of thunder
And the wind's dark moan
I'm not Abel, I'm just Cain
Open up the heavens
Make it rain
I'm close to heaven
Crushed at the gate
They sharpen their knives
On my mistakes
What she done, you can't give it a name
You gotta make it rain
Make it rain, yeah!
Without her love
Without your kiss
Hell can't burn me
More than this
I'm burning with all this pain
Put out the fire
Make it rain
I'm born to trouble
I'm born to fate
Inside a promise
I can't escape
It's the same old world
But nothing looks the same
Make it rain, make it rain
Got to make it rain
Make it rain
You got to make it rain
Got to make it rain
You got to...
I stand alone here
I stand alone here
Sing it...
Make it rain
Make it rain
Thank You...God Bless
You gotto maaykittrayne!
No mate, ugotto may keith reign
I love waits and respect him , first of all. But, one time I saw a stripper "dance" to this song and it was such a surprise to hear it and so great because everyone made it rain.
Was it a golden shower?
Wow what a condescending comment. That being said lots of clubs I've worked at play waits, because hes awesome.
I wanna be that stripper. "Make it rain" is my most favorite song in the world. Seconded by "Walk away"
@Dailon Mann I always thought this song has multiple narratives.
Awesome.
I'm drinking a 15 pack of beer, a pint of grain alcohol, just listening to tom waits, good enough company for me
fuck yes
mxyzptlk133 same same alone in Colombia. God bless
All of a sudden this cheap shit whiskey left at the house from last week is startin' to taste better.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
Been there.
this is so good ,i just got to listen to this song at least a few times a day ,and that guitarsolo ,it´s chemistry on strings.
one of the greatest songs ever written.
tommyyyy|
I loathe people that think that they are better than others because they listen to non-mainstream music. I am young and I love the older, more obscure stuff but that doesn't make me any better, just luckier for being able to have the right circumstances to be introduced to great music.
Im a 5y old kid and I'm listening to this song. I guess I win
Funny, I feel the same way about people who, for whatever reason, mention their young age and preference for older music in Youtube comments.
Small world.
Wooooshh.
The sound of the joke passing over your head
The only reason I’d ever mention my age is to prove that anyone can enjoy music, regardless of age.
Malhado - Actually I think it went over your head.
what she done you can't give it a name
The Man is his own Magic and Myth.
Another killer tune! Another killer Ribot's solo! Another Waits masterpiece! GNARLY!!!
Buff survivability to warlocks in wow, give us Fel flame back I want to believe in mercy make it rain.
La mejor canción que he escuchado en mi vida
Isn't this blues? Very bluesy and with his singing and the lyrics
+Shadow_Link it is blues with exp. rock
Sure is.
God, Tom Waits is fantastic. Takes me back to when I was a child. there was this place called "Margo's cafe" which would always play Tom Waits' albums, it was awesome.
I'm not Able, I'm just Cain
Он шикарен .
+Kursh Пожалуй лучший.
не кто не похож
el lobo solitario
MAAAKkkee itt raaiin!
