[00:-0.50]It Never Rains
[00:09.50]Ar: Dire Straits
[00:19.50]Al: Love Over Gold
[00:27.50]By: Sam Floyd
[00:31.89]I hear the seven deadly sins
[00:34.28]And the terrible twins came to call on you
[00:41.27]The bigger they are babe
[00:43.50]The harder they fall on you
[00:47.15]And you youre always the same you persevere
[00:51.43]On the same old pleasure ground
[00:55.33]Oh and it never rains around here
[01:01.63]It just comes pouring down
[01:12.28]You had no more volunteers
[01:14.18]So you got profiteers for to help you out
[01:21.03]With friends like that babe
[01:23.41]Good friends you had to do without
[01:27.31]And now theyve taken the chains and the gears
[01:31.55]From off your merry-go-round
[01:35.73]Oh and it never rains around here
[01:42.03]It just comes pouring down
[01:45.04]And your new romeo
[01:47.84]Was just a gigolo when he let you down
[01:53.57]See the faster they are babe
[01:56.61]The faster they get out of town
[01:59.52]Leaving make up stains and the tears Of a clown
[02:07.67]Yes and it never rains around here
[02:14.15]It just comes pouring down
[02:17.35]Oh you were just a roller coaster memory
[02:21.45]I dont know why I was even passing through
[02:25.15]I saw you making a date with destiny
[02:28.93]When he came around here asking after you
[02:32.93]In the shadow of the wheel of fortune
[02:37.10]Youre busy trying to clear your name
[02:41.17]You say i may be guilty yeah that may be true
[02:45.05]But Id be lying if I said I was to blame
[02:49.01]See we could have been major contenders
[02:53.09]We never got no money no breaks
[02:56.91]Youve got a list of all the major offenders
[03:00.76]You got a list of all their major mistakes
[03:05.08]And hes just standing on the shadows
[03:09.14]Yes and you smile that come-on smile
[03:12.78]Oh I can still hear you say as clear as the day
[03:17.26]Id like to make it worth your while
[03:20.51]Ah but its a sad reminder
[03:23.13]When your organ grinder has to come to you for the rent
[03:30.12]And all youve got to give him
[03:32.43]Is the use of your side-show tent
[03:35.65]Yes and thats all that remains of the years
[03:40.10]Spent doing to rounds
[03:44.31]And it never rains around here
[03:49.82]Well it just comes pouring down
[03:53.31]Now you know what they say about beggars
[03:58.00]You cant complain about the rules
[04:01.38]You know what they say about beggars
[04:05.82]You know whos the first to blame his tools
[04:09.41]You never gave a damn about who you pick up
[04:13.43]And leave lying bleeding on the ground
[04:17.43]You screw people over on the way up
[04:21.22]Because you thought that you were never coming down
[04:25.33]And he takes you out in vaudeville valley
[04:29.43]With his hand up smothering your screams
[04:33.43]And he screws you down in tin pan alley
[04:37.12]In the city of a billion dreams
