(Verse 1)

Oh it's rainin' tonight.

Oh it's entertainin' tonight, tonight.

Oh it's rainin' tonight.

Oh it's explainin' tonight, tonight. 

Rain everywhere.

The rain is wet, oh my cigarette!

It's cold but I'll stay bold.

Yes I feel aright tonight, that's right.

But I feel so alone sometimes.

And I feel overthrown at times, sometimes.

You know I feel like goin' home sometimes.

I'm cold, I'm wet but I feel alright, that's right.

(Chorus)

The rain comes down in torrents,

The rain comes down in torrents,

The rain comes down in torrents but I feel alright. (X2)

(Verse 2)

Oh it's rainin' tonight.

Oh it's campaignin' tonight, tonight.

Oh it's rainin' tonight.

Oh I ain't complainin' tonight, tonight.

The rain ain't a pain.

Rain helps everyone, it's begun.

The rain helps the earth.

The rain helps us grow, so overflow.

The rain helps anyone.

The rain helps us live all our lives in peace, live in peace.

I said the rain ain't a pain.

The rain helps us live all our lives in peace, live in peace.

(Coda): (Repeat Chorus)

This is the first song I ever wrote. I wrote it under a tree at Clifton Down when I was at boarding school (Clifton College in Bristol).
