The wealthy ones like you look down
On the common folk like me
Makin' bets to what degree of fool we are
Through your rose-colored windows
You see yourself above us
Standin' in the mud gazin' at the stars
But the rich and poor have in common
The common cold, the heartburn and the heartache
Put our pants on just the same
Your worth don't make you better, babe
'Cause I can tread water, babe
As long as you think you make it rain
While you got your raisin, girl
And your diamond-studded world
I got pulled up on the hungry side o' town
I cut my teeth on bacon rind
There ain't no hide as tough as mine
But it might be fun awhile to be your clown
So, get your whip and do your thing
And I'll run around the ring
Ride my white horse, wear my armor too
Aah, but I don't easy blister, babe
I'll be your court jester, babe
Don't think you won't pay fiddler too
Aah, I put your hand in mine
It was a shockin' time to find
The water hot, current strong, deep and wet
You had me strugglin' for a time
A draggin' on your line
But never fear, this fish will never swim
While you're playin' with my mind
I'll be payin' with your money, honey
As long as your account can stand the drain
I'll fan the flame and make it hotter
'Cause I think I can walk on water
As long as you can make it rain
Aww, I'll hang around awhile
Study your style
Come out a whole lot wiser man indeed
'Cause last time anyone as grand
As you appeared and looked around
Found the grandest star up in the East
Hey, but I don't see no halo
Just a little girl with a lot of gold
Want one more trinket for her golden scene
Aah, but you got a hot one hangin', kid
Don't let him say you never did
You best be my guest, make it rain
Aah, make it rain
Babe, make it rain
Make it rain
Oh, make it rain
Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti on June 7, 1917, in Steubenville, Ohio, was an Italian-American singer, actor, and comedian. The son of Italian immigrants from Montesilvano, Abruzzo, Martin began his musical career in New York clubs in the 1940s, adopting the stage name Dean Martin after tenor Nino Martini. In 1946, he formed a comedy duo with Jerry Lewis, which became one of the most popular and enduring in entertainment history. Together they made sixteen films, including "My Friend Irma" (1949) and "Hollywood or Bust!" (1956), and appeared on hugely successful television programs like "The Colgate Comedy Hour". After separating from the duo in 1956, Martin continued to have a successful career as both an actor and a singer. He played memorable roles in films such as "Some Came Running" (1958) and "Rio Bravo" (1959), and achieved international success with songs like "That's Amore" (1954), a declaration of love for Naples and its culture. In the 1960s, Martin became one of the founding members of the Rat Pack, a group of entertainers that included Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Peter Lawford. The Rat Pack became famous for their exuberant shows and memorable performances in Las Vegas. In 1965, Martin began hosting his own television show, "The Dean Martin Show", which was a huge success until 1974. Martin continued to appear in films and record music until the late 1980s, when he retired from performing after a tour with Sinatra and Davis Jr. He died on December 25, 1995, from emphysema. Dean Martin is remembered as one of the greatest entertainers of the 20th century, a versatile talent who left an indelible mark on music, film, and American culture.
