From the film "Easter Parade" (1948)
(Irving Berlin)

I'm just a fella,
A fella with an umbrella,
Looking for a girl who saved her love for a rainy day.
I'm just a fella,
A fella with an umbrella,
Glad to see the skies of blue have turned into skies of gray.
Raindrops have brought us together and that's what I longed to see.
Maybe the break in the weather will prove to be a break for me.
So I'll be the fella, the fella with an umbrella,
if you'll be the girl who saved her love for a rainy day.

I met a fella,
A fella with an umbrella,
Looking for a girl who saved her love for a rainy day.
I met a fella,
A fella with an umbrella,
Waiting for the skies of blue to turn into skies of gray.
Raindrops will bring us together and that's what I long to see.
Maybe a break in the weather will prove to be a break for me.
I told the fella, the fella with the umbrella,
I could be the girl who saved her love for a rainy day.
