Four Years, No Rain Lyrics

Eric Bibb Four Years, No Rain

Four years, no rain
Temperature's gone sky high
Can't find no work, no matter how hard I try

Birds don't sing
Crops, they just won't grow
Gotta leave the only home I've ever known

In the city, no one knows my name
Everybody's hungry, say the government is to blame
Join hands, my brothers
Come, let freedom ring
Soldiers pull the trigger
Just lost everything

Some men say, God holds the keys to Paradise
An' you can't get in 'til you make your sacrifice

War in my country
War is my hometown
Standin' on the landin'
Dreamin' of my holy ground
