Forty Days And Forty Nights - Steppenwolf

Forty days and forty nights

Since my baby done left this town

Oh the sun shining' all day long

But the rain it just keeps on coming' down

She's my life I need her so

Why she left I just don't know

Forty days and forty nights

Since I sat right down and cried

It keeps on raining' all the time

But the river is running' dry

Lord help me it just ain't right

I love that girl with all my might

Forty days and forty nights

Since my baby done broke my heart

I've been searching' for her everywhere

Just like a blind man in the dark

Love can make a poor man rich

Or break his heart I don't know which

Forty days and forty nights

Like a ship out on the stormy sea

I've been praying' for her every night

That she would come back home to me

Life is love and love is light

I hope she comes back home tonight
