lyrics

if you see a window
open, shut it
if you see a window,
close it now
out in the open and ya
take off running
the storm will find you somehow

if ya got a heavy load
go on, cut it
if ya got a heavy load
tie it down
top of the hill and ya can
see it coming
the storm is going to find you out

(CHORUS) the rain is blowing sideways
washing out the byways
ask yourself this, pretty child:
are you going my way?

if your hand finds a line
go on, grasp it
if your hand finds a line
hold it tight
pitching on the water and there's
no use asking
the storm always wins the fight

if your feet touch the bottom
keep on walking
if your feet reach the bottom
stand upright
breathe through your nose but
no more talking
or the storm is gonna win tonight

(CHORUS) the rain is blowing sideways
washing out the byways
ask yourself this, pretty child:
are you going my way?
