Donald Lawerence & The Tri-city Singers - Didn't It Rain
Chorus:
(Didn't it rain children, oh rain, oh my Lord).
Oh, oh forty days, forty nights, there was no land in sight;
it's gonna rain again, no one knows how or when,
but we know it's gonna rain again y'all, again.
Verse:
It rained forty days and forty nights without stopping,
(Noah was glad when the rain stopped dropping).
People knocked on the windows, they knocked on the doors,
("Noah," they cried out, "we can't take much more.")
Then Noah said, "I'm sorry my friends,"
("God's got the key and you can't get in");
(oh my Lord, didn't it rain).
