Weather Man, once the skies were blue
Now the day's cold and grey
Won't you chase the clouds away
I can't endure the temperature

Weather Man, I depend on you
In my heart there's a chill
Where there used to be a thrill
I need my man, Weather Man

The winds are blowin', I shake and shiver
My thoughts are goin' down to the river
The night is stormy, do somethin' for me
You know my share of fair weather is long overdue

Weather Man, oh, see what you can do
Take the sun, make it shine
Find my man and make him mine
Oh, change your plan, you know you can, Weather Man

Weather Man, once the skies were blue
Now the day's cold and grey
Won't you chase the clouds away
I can't endure the temperature

Weather Man, I depend on you
In my heart there's a chill
Where there used to be a thrill
I need my man, Weather Man

The winds are blowin', I shake and shiver
My thoughts are goin' down to the river
The night is stormy, do somethin' for me
You know my share of fair weather is long overdue

Weather Man, oh, see what you can do
Take the sun, make it shine
Find my man and make him mine
Oh, change your plan, you know you can, Weather Man
