Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time

Life is bare--gloom and mis'ry everywhere
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all of the time, the time
Keeps rainin' all of the time

When he went away, the blues came in and met me
If he stays away, old rockin' chair's gonna get me
All I do is pray the Lord above gonna let me
Walk in the sun once more

Can't go on--all I had in life is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all of the time, the time
Keeps rainin' all of the time

Can't go on--all I had in life is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps rainin' all the time, the time
Keeps rainin' all the time
