Lyrics

(C)Rain drops keep fall in’ on my head,

and just like the (C7)guy whose feet are (F)too big for his (Em)bed, (A7)noth in’ seems to (Em)fit.

(A7)Those (Dm7)rain drops are fall in’ on my (G7sus)head, they keep fall in’.

So I just did me some talk in’ to the sun,

and I said I (C7)did n’t like the (F)way he got things (Em)done,

(A7)sleep in’ on the (Em)job.

(A7)Those (Dm7)rain drops are fall in’ on my (G7)head, they keep fall in’!

But there’s one (C)thing

I (C7)know:

the (F)blues they send to (G)meet me won’t de (Em7)feat me.

It won’t be long till (A7)hap pi ness steps (Dm7)up to greet me.

(C)Rain drops keep fall in’ on my head,

but that does n’t (C7)mean my eyes will (F)soon be turn in’ (Em)red.

(A7)Cry in’s not for (Em)me,

(A7)’cause

(Dm7)I’m nev er gon na stop the rain by com plain in’.

Be cause I’m (C)free.

Noth in’s (Gsus)wor ry in’ (C)me.

Noth in’s (Gsus)wor ry in’ (C)me.
