From the recording Katie Marrs

Lyrics

VERSE
I’m drivin’ in the “Parade of Bad Things”
Overworked, underpaid, hangin’ on by a string
Single mom, barely gettin’ by, oh, yeah, feelin’ a chill
Lost my friends, drug through the mill, feelin’ ill

PRE-CHORUS
And as though that’s not enough
It’s raining on the parade

CHORUS
Sometimes my whole life is like drivin’ in the rain
Wipers goin’ bad; wantin’ what I’ve never had
Sorrow and pain; oh, yeah, draggin’ a ball and chain
But through it all, I’m not gonna take the fall

VERSE
It would be easy to just pull over and cry
But I can’t wait, no, on a cloudless sky
Or just hang around for something never found
Or let life get me down; I’m not gonna drown

Repeat CHORUS/BRIDGE
Life doesn’t treat us all the same
But I’m not gonna let that speak for me
I’m not layin’ any blame
But I’m gonna calm this raging sea

SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
I’m still drivin’ in the rain
But just watch me get where I’m going
