Rainy Nights © 2003 Mark e. Campbell - Publisher : Screaming Bird Music (BMI)
From the Straight Ahead Human release ( 2004) . ( Three of the songs of this Cd have been moved to the "Salome " section .

The rain keeps fallin' on my window pane - like an old time record playin' again and again and again
Otis Redding's on the radio , from a long time ago
You keep on thinking love is never gonna come again
like you seen your last lover like you lost your last friend
Otis Redding's on the radio singin' tones sweet and low
That's what rainy nights are for

And the old beats keep runnin' through your veins once again
like the rodeo record that you used to hear when you're a kid
Sgt. Pepper's on the radio , man you know I love that song

And you keep beleivin' that you got to keep on movin' ahead
Keep on thinking that youre gonna fill that space in your bed
BJ Thomas on the radio , everybody loves a rain song - oh baby now
That's what rainy nights are for - That's what rainy nights are for
Like them rainy nights in Houston , seem like it's never gonna end ; and the rainy nights in Georgia , seem like they just can't compare / you know theyr'e gonna com down again

B.B. King is playing the Blues on the radio , on an old country station that they converted a long time ago
Don't you know Lucille's gonna play along - gonna make the show
Why don't you walk alone in the sun again , how you gonna find a new friend
Oh maybe gonna go where you never go and meet somebody new again and you meet a stranger eye to eye , face to face , flesh to flesh , you know that's what I love the best -
Oh baby now ,That's what rainy nights are for - That's what rainy nights are for
Like them rainy nights in Houston seem like it's never gonna end , and the rainy nights in Georgia , like a long lost friend , oh baby , ah ,
That's what rainy nights are for -That's what rainy nights are for Like them rainy nights in Houston , That's what rainy nights are for
