Blackhawk – I Sure Can Smell The Rain

(John Jarrard, Walt Aldridge)

She hasn’t done a thing

That really has to mean she’s going anywhere

I haven’t seen it showing in her eyes

But I swear it must be there

I don’t know why I feel it so strong

But I feel it just the same

I can’t see a single storm cloud in the sky

But I sure can smell the rain

She’d still say “I Love You” if I ask

But she never volunteers

Somehow what she never says

Means more than all the other words I hear

Still she should win an Oscar

If she’s lying when she says that nothing’s changed

I can’t see a single storm cloud in the sky

But I sure can smell the rain

Every day I brace myself

To hear the words I’m scared she’s gonna say

And every night I thank the Lord

Somehow I dodged a bullet one more day

Sometimes there are things a man just knows

That he really can’t explain

I can’t see a single storm cloud in the sky

But I sure can smell the rain

I can’t see a single storm cloud in the sky

But I sure can smell the rain
