A little farm, so far away, rice fields everywhere
Seven children with their mum
And nobody else
They have to suffer...

When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come,
When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come...

Johnny Lee, about fourteen
no childlife in her eyes
Now and then she has to leave
To save her family...

When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come
When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come...
When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come
When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come...

Neon lights, big time, a child is back
In the doorway tiny Johnny Lee
Some guys try to touch her
She closes her eyes and thinks "It has to be"...

When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come
When the rain... When the rain doesn´t come...

Her will is stronger than her pride
She sells her body to let her family survive
Go and help the child behind those eyes
Don´t blame the situation...

Even if the rain... If the rain doesn´t come
Even if the rain... If the rain doesn´t come
Even if the rain... If the rain doesn´t come...
Yeah, yeah...
