IT'S RAINING OUTSIDE
(Wynona Carr / Tito Madi / Buck Ram)


Wynona Carr - 1955



Here's a crazy story, to you it may sound mad
I've got a real gone lover, and he's a crazy lad
Whenever it starts to raining, he drops into my pad

Whenever we're out riding, and all the heavens are dark
Whenever it starts to raining, I feel it's time to park
And when he puts his arms around me, I always start to spark

Because it's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside and I'd best stay home tonight

I just heard my phone ringing and the news was good to know
I heard my baby tell me "I'll be over in a minute or so"
Gonna get myself together and turn the lights down low

Because it's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside tonight (Tonight)
It's raining outside and I'd best stay home tonight

Yes, it's raining outside (Outside)
It's raining outside (Outside, outside)
It's raining outside (Outside, outside)
It's raining outside (Outside, outside)
It's raining outside and I'd best stay home tonight
