The wealthy ones like you look down 
On the common folk like me 
Makin' bets to what degree of fool we are

Through your rose-colored windows 
You see yourself above us 
Standin' in the mud gazin' at the stars

But the rich and poor have in common 
The common cold, the heartburn and the heartache 
Put our pants on just the same

Your worth don't make you better, babe 
'Cause I can tread water, babe 
As long as you think you make it rain

While you got your raisin, girl 
And your diamond-studded world 
I got pulled up on the hungry side o' town

I cut my teeth on bacon rind 
There ain't no hide as tough as mine 
But it might be fun awhile to be your clown

So, get your whip and do your thing 
And I'll run around the ring 
Ride my white horse, wear my armor too

Aah, but I don't easy blister, babe
I'll be your court jester, babe 
Don't think you won't pay fiddler too

Aah, I put your hand in mine
It was a shockin' time to find 
The water hot, current strong, deep and wet

You had me strugglin' for a time 
A draggin' on your line
But never fear, this fish will never swim

While you're playin' with my mind 
I'll be payin' with your money, honey 
As long as your account can stand the drain

I'll fan the flame and make it hotter 
'Cause I think I can walk on water 
As long as you can make it rain

Aww, I'll hang around awhile 
Study your style 
Come out a whole lot wiser man indeed

'Cause last time anyone as grand 
As you appeared and looked around 
Found the grandest star up in the East

Hey, but I don't see no halo 
Just a little girl with a lot of gold 
Want one more trinket for her golden scene

Aah, but you got a hot one hangin', kid 
Don't let him say you never did 
You best be my guest, make it rain

Aah, make it rain 
Babe, make it rain 
Make it rain Oh, make it rain
