It was a cloudy day
When she came my way
Off of dirt road
Outside of town
I said girl that path leads to nowhere
She said nowhere where she’s bound
I said I’m bound in my heart
And I’m bound in my head
But my feet are still wandering free
She said her home is where she lays her head
And that night she laid her head on me
And it was rainy on the road
And it was rainy in my arms
It was rainy as we look for food and work
Across those midwestern farms
It was rainy in the Blue Ridge Mountains
As we hitchhike through Tennessee
But you’ll never hear me complaining
It’s rainy every day for me
Canada said we couldn’t walk that way
So we drifted down to Pioneer Square
We played in the street for something to eat
And convinced ourselves that life was fair
It was rainy that day at the water front
It was rainy, who threw me a line
It was rainy, who grinned as we walked on in
To the ferry we were hiding inside
It was rainy that morning in Anchorage
Who convinced him we should be released
And we headed up north the Fairbanks
And it’s been rainy every day for me
Another rainy day
She tells me it’s all gonna be OK
Another rainy night
She says come over here and hold me tight
It was cloudy today and she came my way
She said let’s take this dirt road into town
I said girl that path leads to nowhere
She said nowhere is where she’s bound
I said I’m bound in my heart and I’m bound in my head, but my feet are still wandering free
She said her home is where she lays her head
And at night she lays her head on me
