It's been dry
It's been dry times
Year in, year out
Drought follows drought
Not a cloud in the sky and dry, so dry
Lord if you'd be kind
See if you could find
A little rain
The climate's done its worst
The land is choked with thirst
And a lot of pain, a lot of pain
It's been dry
It's been dry times
Year in, year out
Drought follows drought
Not a cloud in the sky and dry, so dry
Fortune teller's charm
When I married this old farm
Said I'd succeed
But folks born and raised
And lived here all their days
Are stuck with weeds, dry weeds
It's been dry
It's been dry times
Year in, year out
Drought follows drought
Not a cloud in the sky and dry, so dry
Lord you know we're poor
We do what we must
But it's hard to watch these crops
Turn brown in the dust
So we're packing up real slow
Don't know where we'll go
Or what we'll do
Starting over will be tough
But I think we're strong enough
For something new, so new
It's been dry
It's been dry times
Year in, year out
Drought follows drought
Not a cloud in the sky and dry, so dry
