IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE RAIN
From Captain Kangaroo's kids show


If you didn't have rain
Then you couldn't have showers
If you didn't have showers
Then you couldn't have flowers

There'd be no place to swim
There'd be no babbling brook
There'd be no fish to catch
At the end of a hook

You'd be so awfully dirty
You'd be as black as ink
All day you'd face the barren waste
Looking for a nice cool drink

So you've gotta have rain
Every now and then
To make the whole world shine
Then every day will turn out fine
