Keeps on A-Rainin'

Keeps on A-Rainin' - Bessie Smith

One dark and stormy night

Big John was feeling blue

Ain't he didn't seem right

So he didn't know just what to do

I said "Do please tell me

Ain't you satisfied "

He looked around so pitiful

And to me he replied

Keeps on raining

Look how it's raining

Daddy he can't make no time

Wind keeps blowing

Cold wind's blowing

Soon I'll find

In the winter time

When it starts to snow

You know a preaty mam a god

And some dough

Keeps on raining

Do can it's raining

Papa he can't make no time

"Ain't the no just beautiful "

Some people say

But I'd rather see it

In a fine movie place

Keeps on raining

Look how it's raining

Papa he can't make no time
