Neil Diamond - Raisin' Caine lyrics

She spent ev'ry night just Raisin' Caine

Johnny, Bill and Joe

They all meant the same

Tried to hide that deep inside her

Lay a woman, soft and tender

Needin' someone to defend her

She was just a great pretender

Raisin' Caine

Didn't take long to make up my mind

I just had to have that somethin' fine

So I got set to make her forget

All the boys that she knew before

Give her reason to love me for

Love her till she had no need for

Raisin' Caine.

I made her know my love will always be

And in a while she wanted only me

To give her lovin' yeah, yeah, yeah

I've been wed three years

To that girl I won

And I'm proud to say

We have ourselves a son

For a name called him Caine'

It didn't take long to discover

He had fire just like his mother

But that's O.K.

'Cause we've each other,

Raisin' Caine
