Rain Dancer Video (MV)

I'd tell the kids, Mama's a rain dancer
She's from a tribe, a real storm-chancer
She said, I make the thunder roll, make the rain fall
I'd tell 'em, She's the one, the best of 'em all

I said mama's a rain dancer
But the truth hit hard, cut me deep
She wasn't bringin' rain, she was takin' it off
Workin' that bar every night 'til she'd drop

She told me stories of magic in the air
How she'd dance in the rain, like a prayer
But I saw her name on that neon sign
Dancin' for tips with her clothes all behind

I said mama's a rain dancer
But the truth hit hard, cut me deep
She wasn't bringin' rain, she was takin' it off
Workin' that bar every night 'til she'd drop

I turned twenty-one, walked through the door
Saw my mama on that stage, couldn't ignore
She was takin' it off for the drunk and the loud
While I stood there, frozen in the crowd
I didn't want to cause a scene, so I played along
Threw a ten on the stage as the music played on

I said mama's a rain dancer
But the truth hit hard, cut me deep
She wasn't bringin' rain, she was takin' it off
Workin' that bar every night 'til she'd drop

Now I know the truth, it ain't so bright
She wasn't dancin' for rain, just a dollar tonight
No sacred call, just a stage and a crowd
Shakin' it all, no magic allowed

I said mama's a rain dancer
But the truth hit hard, cut me deep
She wasn't bringin' rain, she was takin' it off
Workin' that bar every night 'til she'd drop

Yeah, mama wasn't rain, just a story I told
Dancin' for money, no spirit to hold
