Keeps on A-Rainin (Papa He Can't Make No Time) |
One dark and stormy night, Bill Jones was feeling blue |
Things didn’t seem just right, so he didn’t know just what to do |
I said: Bill, please tell me, ain’t you satisfied? |
He looked around so pitiful, then to me he replied |
Keeps on a-rainin', look how it’s rainin' |
Papa he can’t make no time |
Wind keeps blowing, cold wind blowing |
Soon I’ll find a southern clime |
In the wintertime when it starts to snow |
You know you pretty mama’s got to have some dough |
Keeps on rainin', look how it’s rainin' |
Papa he can’t make no time |
Ain’t the snow just beautiful, some people say |
But I’d rather see it in a moving picture play |
Keeps on snowin', look how it’s snowin' |
Papa he can’t make no time |
