Rain keeps fallin’ on Beale Street tonight
Neon buzzin’, but it don’t feel right
Old piano cryin’ through the barroom haze
I see your ghost in the alleyway
Rain on Beale Street, wash my pain
Thunder rollin’, callin’ your name
Every drop’s a memory I can’t lose
Rain on Beale Street, playin’ my blues
Cigarette smoke hangs heavy and low
Jukebox playin’ what we used to know
Broken hearts drown where the whiskey flows
I still love you, but Lord only knows
If the river floods this lonely town
Will it carry my sorrow down?
