have you ever seen the rain
Someone told me long ago
There’s a calm before the storm, I know
And it’s been coming for some time
When it’s over, so they say
It’ll rain a sunny day, I know
Shining down like water
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day
Yesterday and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard, I know
Been that way for all my time
‘Til forever on it goes
Thru the circle fast and slow, I know
And it can’t stop, I wonder
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain
Coming down on a sunny day
a long time gone
It’s been a long time comin’
It’s goin’ to be a long time gone.
And it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long time,
Yes, a long, long, long, long time,
Before the dawn.
Turn, turn any corner.
Hear, you must hear what the people say,
You know there’s something that’s goin’ on around here,
That surely, surely, surely won’t stand the light of day.
And it appears to be a long, (yes it does)
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, time,
Before the dawn.
Speak out, you got to speak out against the madness
You got to speak your mind,
If you dare.
But don’t, no don’t no try to get yourself elected.
If you do you had better cut your hair.
And it appears to be a long, (yes it does)
Appears to be a long
Appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, long, long time,
Before the dawn.
It’s been a long time comin’,
It’s going to be a long time gone.
But you know, the darkest hour,
Is always, always just before the dawn.
And it appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long,
Appears to be a long time,
Such a long, long, long, long time before the dawn

Boy they’re incredible.
Quiet, quiet!
I’ll tell you one thing, we sure turned a trainful of freaks into a party, man, ha ha ha ha, didn’t we, boys ? All right, all right, now what should I do ? Get it ?
“Get it While You Can” ? “Get it While You Can” !
All right. I’ll do a song, man, that I’ll tell you you could apply it to more or less to anything you want to but it could almost be even called the truth man. I wouldn’t go that far, I wouldn’t heavy up on anyone like that, man. I’ll tell you one thing, songs got something to say, man, if you can dig it. It’s talking about everybody’s life, man, and what passes by you and what you miss and what you’re gonna have, man. This is a song called Get it While You Can ’cause it ain’t gonna be there when you wake up, man. (On Richard!) Richard Bell on piano.
