The song was written during a ferocious sunshower in Austin, Texas, 1995. Lyrics Why'd you have to wear that dress in the rain You know me better than that I'll be your midwife I'll be your sex life There are things I cannot contain You wear that dress out in the rain Why'd you have to wear that dress in the rain You got a lot of nerve This ain't your birthday You don't get your way There are things I cannot explain to you These are hard times Stick in the baselines Don't say you're sorry, don't say it's all in vain, don't wear that dress out in the rain Double, double, toil and trouble A one-night stand and a three-day stubble Those boys on the sidewalk got water on the brain You're standing around laughing and wearing that dress in the rain Why'd you have to wear that dress in the rain There's tricks your eyes can play This is your hometown This is your nightgown And all I do is sit around here and complain This is your medicine This is your next of kin And you're standing around laughing and wearing your dress in the rain Wearing your dress in the rain You've got the corner boys singing: This is the first time This is the hard line This is the last call They don't play baseball when you're standing around laughing wearing that dress in the rain Oh, you were so cool Child, you were old school I'll be your old clothes Darling, I'll be your red, red ros
