And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through
With the rain in my shoes, searchin' for you
In the cold Kentucky rain
In the cold Kentucky rain

Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men
Sitting on a bench outside a general store
They said, "Yes, she's been here", but their memory wasn't clear
Was it yesterday? No, wait the day before

Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked
"Where you bound on such a cold, dark afternoon?"
As we drove on through the rain, as he listened I explained
And he left me with a prayer that I'd find you

Kentucky rain keeps pouring down
And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through
With the rain in my shoes, searchin' for you
In the cold Kentucky rain
In the cold Kentucky rain

In the cold Kentucky rain
In the cold Kentucky rain
In the cold Kentucky rain
