About Who'll Stop The Rain
Due to the period in which it was created and the resigned but somewhat angry tone of the song, many interpret "Who'll Stop the Rain" as a thinly-veiled protest against the Vietnam War. The final verse, with its references to music, large crowds, rain, and efforts to stay warm, is often seen as reflecting the band's experience at the Woodstock Festival in August 1969. Additionally, the line in the second verse about "five-year plans and new deals wrapped in golden chains" suggests a broader cynicism about politicians. .
Who'll Stop The Rain Lyrics
[00:13.88] Long as I remember the rain been comin' down
[00:16.05]
[00:21.34] Clouds of mystery pourin' confusion on the ground
[00:28.98] Good men through the ages tryin' to find the sun
[00:37.02] And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain?
[00:47.05] I went down Virginia, seekin' shelter from the storm
[00:53.96] Caught up in the fable, I watched the tower grow
[01:01.71] Five Year Plans and New Deals, wrapped in golden chains
[01:09.45] And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain?
[01:17.86]
[01:31.05] Heard the singers playin', how we cheered for more
[01:38.83] The crowd had rushed together, tryin' to keep warm
[01:46.68] Still the rain kept pourin', fallin' on my ears
[01:54.24] And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain?
[02:00.94]
