A little fawn so far away
Rice fields everywhere
Seven children with the mom
And nobody else, they have to suffer
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
Johnny Lee, about fourteen
No child lie in her life
Knowing then she has to live
To save her family
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
Meal time is big time and Johnny is back
In the doorway stands Johnny Lee
Some guy has got to touch her
She close her eyes and think
"It has to be"
When the rain... When the rain doesn't come
Her will is stronger than her pride
She sell her body to let her family survive
Gone tell the child behind those eyes
Don't blame the situation
Even if there rain... If the rain doesn't come
Even if there rain... If the rain doesn't come
Even if there rain... If the rain doesn't come
Even if there rain... If the rain doesn't come(M. Chapman, N. Chinn, H. Knight)

A prisoner of your love
Entangled in your web
Hot whispers in the night
I'm captured by your spell
Oh yes I'm touched by this show of emotion
Should I be fractured by your lack of devotion
Should I, should I?
You better be good to me
That's how it's gotta be now
Cause I don't have no use
For what you losely call the truth
You better be good to me
I think it's also right
That we don't need to fight
We stand face to face
And you present your case
And I know you keep telling me that you love me
And I really do wanna believe
But did you think I'd just accept you in blind faith
Oh sure babe, anything to please you
You better be good to me
That's how it's gotta be now
Cause I don't have the time
For your over loaded lines
You better be good to me
And I really don't see why it's so hard to be good to me
And I don't understand what's your plan that you can't be good to me
What I can't feel I surely cannot see, why can't you be good to me
And if it's not real I do not wish to see, why can't you be good to me
