Die Welt braucht Regen, um zu existieren:

 

We used to sing songs about sunshine

Begging the clouds to roll by

But now there's enough of sunshine

You'll hear ev'ryone sigh:

 

Chorus:

Rain,

When ya gonna rain again?

Rain,

Grow the golden grain again

Shower your blessings on me

Rain,

Make the rivers deep again

Rain,

Please don't let me weep again

Shower your blessings on me

The cows in the meadow and the sheep in the corn

They know that something is wrong

Old Mother Earth can never give birth

When you're away so long

Rain,

Make it green in lover's lane

Rain,

For my gal and me again

Shower your blessings on me.

 

Each time that the clouds get together

I kneel in pray'r once again

I'm praying for stormy weather

Still I'm waiting for rain:

 

Chorus
