    This song was NUMER ONE on MP3.com's Folk Rock charts for 4 days April 22-25, 2002!! An anthem like song not inspired by nor nothing like Dylan's song of the same title. In fact when Jack wrote this song he was unaware of Bob Dylan's song of the same title.

    Story Behind the Song
    The idea for this song occurred during a hard rainstorm which seemed to wash everything clean

    Lyrics
    There are full moons
    Locked in closed rooms
    There's an Eagle in hot water
    There is freedom locked in cages
    All our war wounds have left us painless

    So many heroes lost to scandal
    Finding men human can be tough to handle
    We'll hate one nation for one man's bullet
    We can love each other but we won't do it

    I think it's time Lord
    For a Hard Rain
    Flush these waters
    Cleanse our soils
    Wash our children
    Of the wrongs we've taught them
    Shine on them a new world
    Bless them with a rainbow
    Left by a Hard Rain

    Too often passion is quoted from Hallmarks
    Television has made us robots
    We'll follow leaders who are meeker
    Than our neighbors we've kept as strangers

    Too much silence, words should be spoken
    Too many children from homes that are broken
    Maybe all this violence in our school rooms
    Comes from parents who just don't care
    Or push too much too soon

    I think it's time Lord
    For a Hard Rain
    Flush these waters
    Cleanse our soils
    Wash our children
    Of the wrongs we've taught them
    Shine on them a new world
    Bless them with a rainbow
    Left by a Hard Rain

    etc. etc. etc.
