Wicked Rain / Across 110th Street
Los Lobos

(feat. Bobby Womack)


I hear thunder

Looks like the rain

Is gonna start falling

Rain, falling from the sky


Rain, rain, rain, a wicked rain

Falling from the sky

Down, down, down, pouring down

Upon the night

Well there's just one chance in a million

That someday we'll make it out alive


Rain, rain, rain an evil rain

Falling all the time

Sun, sun, sun, sun

Don't you ever want to shine

Well there'll be no light in the morning

Till some peace at last we find


Like travellers in the darkness

Can't see our way

Trying hard to make it through

Another day


Father, father, father

Why do you let your sons go astray

Brother, brother, brother

Why must we go on this way

There's a storm off in the distance

And it looks like it's here to stay


I was the third brother of five

Doing whatever I had to do to survive

I'm not saying what I did was alright

Tryin' to break out of the ghetto

Was a day to day fight


Bein' down so long

Getting' up didn't cross my mind

But I knew there was a better way of life

And I was just tryin' to find

You don't know what you're doin'

Till you're put under pressure

Across 100 and Tenth Street

Is a hell of a tester


Across 100 and Tenth Street

Pimps tryin' to catch a woman that's weak

Across 100 and Tenth Street

Pushers won't let the junkie go free

Across 100 and Tenth Street

A woman tryin' to catch a trick on the street

Across 100 and Tenth Street

You can find it all


Hey Brother, there's a better way out

Snorting that coke, shooting that dope

Man, you're coppin' out

Take my advice, it's either live or die

You gotta be strong if you wanna survive

The family up on the other side of town

Will catch hell if I don't get around

In ev'ry city you'll find the same thing goin' down

Harlem is the capital of ev'ry ghetto town


Across 100 and Tenth Street

Pimps tryin' to catch a woman that's weak

Across 100 and Tenth Street

Pushers won't let the junkie go free

Across 100 and Tenth Street

You can find it all


Across 100 and Tenth Street

Let the sun, let the sun shine down

Across 100 and Tenth Street

Like travellers in the darkness

Can't see our way

Across 100 and Tenth Street

Trying hard to make it

Make it through another day

Oh, stop the rain

Somebody stop the rain

Across 100 and Tenth Street

A little more love and a little less pain
