When does a man pick the ground on which he stands before he
Realizes that he's out of time?
When does a mother, sister, uncle, pa, and aunt and mister
Reunite and miss a poor boy's life?
Singing songs is nice and all
We'll still be slinging alcohol
Doing all the things we ever do
But I'll be sittin' wonderin' why
He had to go ahead and die
A cowboy's life, this one goes out... to you
Blame it on the rain
Blame it on the sun
And this pain
It makes you run
Buy you flowers
For your grave
But your heart
It still remains
Never put much stock into the ticking of a clock, I never
Got the bargain in that second hand
But now I'm counting every minute, hour, day and what's left in it
Until I see that crazy kid again
Blame it on the rain
Blame it on the sun
And this pain
It makes you run
Buy you flowers
For your grave
But your heart
It still remains
Everybody knows what worth your time
Ain't weighed in gold
It's only people that you know
You keep in mind
You're the one we'll still remember
June, July, August, September
You're the reason we'll forever find
(One more time)
Blame it on the rain
Blame it on the sun
And this pain
It makes you run
Buy you flowers
For your grave
But your heart
It still remains
