Rain Song (Don't Let The Rain Bring You Down)

(album: Elephant Mountain - 1969)

I was sitting picking on a ragtime tune
Said no crying on a rainy afternoon

(Lemme tell ya)

Crazy is the way you're gonna be, giving folks the opportunity
To-ooh blow your mind
Turn your head around
Don't let the rain bring you down

(From the top now, and from the bottom now)

People get happy whistling the melody
Because happy is the only way to be

Crazy is the way you're gonna be, giving folks the opportunity
To-ooh blow your mind
Turn your head around
Don't let the rain, don't let the rain bring you down

(Take it, rain)

Well, I'm going. Won't you come along? (Come along with me. Come along mama)
Yeah, I'm going. Won't you come along and see?

(Ah, won't you come along and see?)

Crazy is the way you're gonna be, giving folks the opportunity
To-ooh blow your mind
Turn your head around
Don't let the rain, don't let the rain bring you down

(Blow your mind
Move your cane
Looks like he would
If the room was peanut butter, we'd be sticking by each other)
