Standin’ in the Rain Lyrics
[Intro]
Concerto for a rainy day
Hey
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Ah
Rainy day
Rainy day
Ah
[Verse 1]
I'm standin' in the rain
I'm waiting all alone
I'm so tired
I wanna go home
[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the rain
Getting soaking wet
I'm doin' my best
But what do I get?
[Refrain]
I'm standin' in the rain
Can't seem to get along (Ah-ah-ah)
Oh, people rushing by (People rushing by)
Wish they could hear my song
Concerto for a rainy day
Hey
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Ah
Rainy day
Rainy day
Ah
[Verse 1]
I'm standin' in the rain
I'm waiting all alone
I'm so tired
I wanna go home
[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the rain
Getting soaking wet
I'm doin' my best
But what do I get?
[Refrain]
I'm standin' in the rain
Can't seem to get along (Ah-ah-ah)
Oh, people rushing by (People rushing by)
Wish they could hear my song
[Verse 2]
I'm standin' in the rain
Now it's teeming down on me (Hey)
Cats and dogs
Hey, I wanna be free
[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the rain, doin' my thing
I'm trying my best, but what does it bring?
I'm standing in the rain, getting soaking wet
I'm doing my best, but what do I get?
Oh
[Bridge]
The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain
I tried to be so good this time
But here I am under the sky
(The good intentions and the pain, oh)
The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain
[Outro]
Rainy day, ooh-ah-ooh
Rainy day
I'm standin' in the rain
Now it's teeming down on me (Hey)
Cats and dogs
Hey, I wanna be free
[Chorus]
I'm standin' in the rain, doin' my thing
I'm trying my best, but what does it bring?
I'm standing in the rain, getting soaking wet
I'm doing my best, but what do I get?
Oh
[Bridge]
The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain
I tried to be so good this time
But here I am under the sky
(The good intentions and the pain, oh)
The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain
[Outro]
Rainy day, ooh-ah-ooh
Rainy day
