Just a little rain falling all around
The grass lifts its head to the heavenly sound
Just a little rain, just a little rain
What have they done to the rain
Just a little boy, standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for years
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain

Just a little grease out of the sky
The leaves bet their hands as the grease blows by
Just a little grease with some smoke in its eye
What have they done to the rain
Just a little breeze out of the sky
The leaves not their heads as the breeze glows by
Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye
What have they done to the rain
Just a little boy, standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for years
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain
And what have they done to the rain
