Buy For Me The Rain Lyrics - Dirt, Silver & Gold - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Buy for me the rain, my darling, buy for me the rain 

Buy for me the crystal pools that fall upon the plain 

And I'll buy for you a rainbow and a million pots of gold 

Buy it for me now, babe, before I am too old 

Buy for me the sun, my darling, buy for me the sun 

Buy for me the light that falls when day has just begun 

And I'll buy for you a shadow to protect you from the day 

Buy it for me now, babe, before I go away 

Buy for me the robin, darling, buy for me the wing 

Buy for me a sparrow, almost any flying thing 

And I'll buy for you a tree, my love, where a robin's nest may grow 

Buy it for me now, babe, the years all hurry so

I cannot buy you happiness, I cannot by you years 

I cannot buy you happiness, in place of all the tears 

But I can buy for you a gravestone, to lay behind your head 

Gravestones cheer the living, dear, they're no use to the dead
