| Hello misfortune
|
| How’s my old friend Mr. misery?
|
| I’ve been away so long
|
| I bet you thought you’d seen the last of me
|
| I got no bed to rest my head
|
| No doors or walls or window pane
|
| Now all I needed was the rain, hey hey
|
| If it was winter
|
| My kind I’d grind up with a fork
|
| If I would chatter to the train
|
| With New York
|
| Broke and bent, I got no rent
|
| I’m battered like a weather vein
|
| And all I needed was the rain, hey hey, hey
|
| Met a little honey
|
| At the «Buzzin' Bumble Bee Cafe»
|
| One drink and all my money
|
| And that honey bee had flown away
|
| I’m 'bout as low, as I can go
|
| I don’t really mean to complain
|
| But all I needed was the rain, hey hey, hey
|
| Hey hey, hey
|
| All I needed was the rain, hey hey, hey hey hey |
