Lightnin' Hopkins - California Showers Lyrics
Just take a look at the weather It keep rainin' all the timeJust take a look at the weather It keep rainin' all the timeYou know it be rainin' this minute and the next minute You look up and you'll see sunshineTell me why there's rain Why it storm in California all the timeTell me why do it rain Why it storm in California all the timeI don't want the rain But you still have plenty sunshineYou know it keeps on rainin' You know this poor man can't make no timeYou know if it keeps on rainin' You know this poor man can't make no timeYou know if I can't go to my job How I'm gonna feed this family of mine?You know the poor children are runnin' "I'm hungry" When I don't have a lousy dimePoor children runnin', cryin' "Daddy I'm hungry" And I don't have a lousy dimeThat's the reason I was singin' when it started rainin' in California Why do it keep rainin' all the time?You know it was dark and cloudy Raindrops settled on my window paneYou know it was dark it was cloudy The raindrops settled on my window paneYou know my children didn't have nothin' to eat Now peoples ain't that a cryin' shameMy poor wife walkin' Tellin' the children this is a cryin' shameMy poor wife walkin' Tellin' the children this is a cryin' shameYeah we all goin' down starvation I do believe But your daddy ain't to blameThat's all right, that's all right You don't have to worry no moreThat's all right, that's all right Children you don't have to worry no moreYou know the sun is shinin
