ALL I NEEDED WAS THE RAIN
From the film "Stay Away, Joe" (1968)
(Ben Weisman / Sid Wayne)
Elvis Presley - 1968
Hello misfortune,
How's my old friend Mister Misery?
I've been away so long,
I bet you thought you'd seen the last of me
Got no bed, to rest my head
No doors or walls or window pane
Now all I needed was the rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Met a little honey at the "Buzzin' Bumble Bee Cafe",
Yes I did
One drink and all my money
And that honey bee had flown away
I'm 'bout as low, as I can go
I don't really mean to complain
Now all I needed was the rain
Rain, rain...rain..rain
SPOKEN:
All I needed was this rain...
All I needed was the rain...um..um.....
