Stormy Weather

(album: Simple Things - 2023)

Went down hard like it was the first time
The last time that I fell
No one came from my corner
No one rang the bell

You can rip me off and run me out of town
I've been torn to pieces, buried six feet down
I'm right here, I'm no pretender
Against the wall there's no surrender
Just remember
Built for stormy weather

It always comes out of nowhere
Love is funny then it hurts like hell
One day your cup is overflowing
The next you're digging a well
It's always hard to tell

You can rip me off and run me out of town
I've been torn to pieces, buried six feet down
I'm right here, I'm no pretender
Against the wall no surrender
Just remember
Built for stormy weather

Signed the deal, made the papers
Tasted sweeter chasing thrills
So good time Charlie took the waitress
And left me with the bill
I've just 'bout had my fill

You can rip me off and run me out of town
I've been torn to pieces, buried six feet down
I'm right here, I'm no pretender
Against the wall no surrender
Just remember
Built for stormy weather

I'm right here, I'm no pretender
Against the wall no surrender
Just remember
Just remember
Built for stormy weather
