Rustin’ In The Rain

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I have gee'd and haw'd Myself into a tizzy I am yearnin' for the turnin' In the most peculiar way Blame it on my jeans Caked in tenant farmin' But I can't stand for idle hands As the hours waste away [Chorus] Let your love light shine Don't ya hide it 'neath no bushel, baby Take that whip to task And work me all night 'neath the flame I am yours to use And I sure wish you would use me Do not let my heart just fall apart Rustin' in the rain [Verse 2] I'm a hillside plow Workin' one way then the other I don't run around in circles I work right on up the side Startin' at the foot Going past the shoulder 'Til the sweat erodes And the whole hill slides [Chorus] Let your love light shine Don't ya hide it 'neath no bushel, baby Take that whip to task Work me all night 'neath the flame I am yours to use And I sure wish you would use me Do not let my heart just fall apart Rustin' in the rain [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 3] I have gee'd and haw'd For you and it sure suits me I am pawin' with impatience At the thought of tracin' chains I have grit my bit Right in half from just a-thinkin' Of gettin' hunkered down Tryin' to get up through the hames [Chorus] Let your love light shine Don't ya hide it 'neath no bushel, baby Take that whip to task And work me all night 'neath the flame I am yours to use And I sure wish you would use me Do not let my heart just fall apart Rustin' in the rain [Outro] Do not let my heart just fall apart Rustin' in the rain
