Notecard in the Rain

a country song by Samara, Rebecca, and John

Verse 1
Carrying that research paper to her car
She had worked weeks for it to make sense.
She didn't see the dog coming from afar,
From the hole in that chain-link fence.


Chorus
Papers flying far and wide;
She knows now there's no one on her side.
A month's hard work goin' down the drain;
With nothin' left but a note card in the rain.


Verse 2
Her life was ruined
But she kept on goin'
Her brain juices kept brewin'
Her mind keeps flowin'


Verse 3
She did a research paper again
She almost commited a sin
Her brother who was a jerk
Tried to delete the work
She almost went to jail
Because she tried to send anthrax in the mail
In the hope that he would open it and die
