RAINY DAY PEOPLE
Gordon Lightfoot 
1975


Gordon Lightfoot


Rainy day people always seem to know 
when it's time to call
Rainy day people don't talk
They just listen 
'til they've heard it all
Rainy day lovers don't lie 
when they tell you
They been down like you
Rainy day people don't mind 
if you're crying a tear or two.

If you get lonely, 
all you really need 
is that rainy day love 

Rainy day people all know 
there's no sorrow they can't rise above 
Rainy day lovers don't love any others, 
that would not be kind 
Rainy day people all know 
how it hangs on a piece of mind.

(bridge)

Rainy day lovers don't lie when they tell you,
they've been down there too 
Rainy day people don't mind 
if you're crying a tear or two.

Rainy day people always seem to know 
when you're feeling blue 
High stepping strutters
who land in the gutter 
sometimes need one too 
Take it or leave it, 
or try to believe it, 
if you've been down too long

Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside 
they just pass it on 

Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside 
they just pass it on.
