Tom: C
C
[Verse]
C
Well, all you possum-belly queens, get outta here
G C
Gypsy's out for blood tonight
She's got 'Love' and 'Hate' tattooed on her fists
G C
She's drunk and she's ready to fight
[Verse]
F C
She used to run a little shot and a beer joint
F C
Now she's a jockey on the Astro ride
F C
She took me for a whirl one night
G
It messed me up inside
[Chorus]
C F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
C G
How long can the rain go on?
C F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
G C
On the road to Bayamon
[Verse]
In a parking lot down in old San Juan
G C
Out on the road to Bayamon
We set up the tents and the alibi joints
G C
And the freak show from Leon
[Verse]
F C
We had French Canadian racketeers
F C
And rednecks from down south
F C
And Puerto Rican pistol boys
G
With boa constrictor mouths
[Chorus]
C F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
C G
How long can the rain go on?
C F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
G C
On the road to Bayamon
[Instrumental]
C F C G C F G C
[Verse]
Well, the wirewalker started drinking hard
G C
The payroll checks never came
And somebody stole the little two-headed boy
G C
And the midway drowned in the rain
[Verse]
F C
Well, it rained through the month of April
F C
And it rained through the month of May
F C
And all across that little island
G
I could hear the children say
[Chorus]
C F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
C G
How long can the rain go on?
C F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
G C
On the road to Bayamon
[Chorus]
C F
Ai-yi-yi, oh, the rain
C G
How long can this rain go on?
C F
There's nothing sadder than a carnival
G C
On the road to Bayamon
