ONE LITTLE RAINDROP
From the Radio Luxembourg show "The Ovaltineys"
The Ovaltineys, Tessa Deane & George Melachrino - 1939


GIRL: Here's Auntie Mary
OVALTINEYS: Hello, Auntie Mary
TESSA DEANE: Hello, Ovaltineys
GIRL: Will you sing us a song?
OVALTINEYS: Oh, yes please
TESSA: Yes, Uncle George and I will sing "One Little Raindrop",
but you'll all join in the chorus?
OVALTINEYS: Oh, yes we want to
TESSA: All right then, here we go....

TESSA:
We can't hope the sun will always be shining
When the skies are grey, we shouldn't complain
Just behind the clouds is your silver lining
So, remember, when there's a little rain

TESSA & GEORGE:
One little raindrop doesn't mean a shower
One little dark cloud doesn't mean a storm
If trouble comes to you, don't worry, don't be blue
The sweetest dreams take longest to come true

TESSA:
One little heartache doesn't mean it's broken
One little smile will mend it anytime
TESSA & GEORGE:
For one little raindrop doesn't mean a shower
And after the rain the sun is bound to shine

GEORGE: Come on Ovaltineys

ALL:
One little raindrop doesn't mean a shower
One little dark cloud doesn't mean a storm
If trouble comes to you, don't worry, don't be blue
The sweetest dreams take longest to come true

One little heartache doesn't mean it's broken
One little smile will mend it anytime
One little raindrop doesn't mean a shower
And after the rain the sun is bound to shine
