This Sad Song lyrics

Well, the rain is apourin` down in a fury,

And the road is lookin` long,

And the only thing that comes to mind

Is the tune of this sad song.

Tune of this sad song! Oh Lord!



Well, the wind is acreepin` up my back,

Through the door, through the roof, through the window crack.

Tossin` and a-turnin` all night long

To the rhythm and the sound of a saddened song.

Saddened song! Oh Lord!



In a dream of passion I saw a face

Of a beautiful woman in a terrible place.

She looked at me, and she called for you,

Then she closed her eyes and she sang this tune.

Sang this tune! Oh Lord!
