The rain keeps falling Tears keep coming down I can't find my baby I wonder she left town Rain rain rain rain I'd like to see my girl again She broke my heart in two And caused me so much pain Rain rain rain rain My pillow's soaking wet I can't find her in the morning She's not home yet Rain rain rain rain My pillow's soaking wet I can't find her in the morning She's not home yet The rain keeps falling Tears keep coming down I couldn't find my darling I wonder she left town Rain rain rain rain My pillow's soaking wet Where is she in the morning She's not home yet Rain rain rain rain Rain rain rain rain Rain rain rain rain
