Falling from the sky it tastes like nectar
Don’t tell me what it is don’t need no lecture
I’m walking down the street splashing the gutters
Don’t tell me what to do you ain’t my mother
Put on your red galoshes baby
Put on your shiny yellow hat
Come on outside to play today
I’ll wear my coonskin cap
I’ll wear my coonskin cap
Jumping in these puddles, squishing up the mud
Dripping muddy waters, slipping through the flood
Let’s go to school tomorrow, this don’t happen every day
Chase the river rising, promise that you’ll stay
Sweet Rain. Sweet Sweet Rain.
Put on your raincoat honey
Put on your warm woolen skirt
Come on outside to play today
I’ll wear my cowboy shirt
I’ll wear my cowboy shirt
Sweet Rain. Sweet Sweet Rain.
