Rain or Shine (S. Loree)
There's pushing and shoving
The sun against the clouds
Neither one is settled
When the other is around
One's got a point
The other's got a line
One wants to pour
The other wants to shine
Far down below
They've drawn a crowd
Of curious people
Milling about
Their hands up in wonder
At this wonder that they've found
All this pushing and shoving
So far above the ground
What a sound
Others long for fire
Some desire rain
You can burn on the pyre
Or drown in the drain
You can stand down and listen
You can stand up and yell
But it doesn't rain or shine
There's pushing and shoving
The street against the crowd
Neither one is settled
When the other is around
Their hands up in anger
At this traffic that they've found
All this pushing and shoving
Down here on the ground
It doesn't rain or shine
Under the liberty bell
And it doesn't rain or shine
Behind the gates of hell
I know you never would
You know I never will
And it doesn't rain or shine
