Verse:
Don't let the thunder scare you, don't let it get you down,
You may get wet, but you never can drown in the rain.
Don't be afraid of showers, feel like the flowers do,
Cares will be nil if you will trill a silly refrain.
Start singing,
Chorus 1:
Run, little raindrop, run, get along, little cloud, get along,
I've got a date with a place in the sun, so run, little raindrop, run.
Sing, little bluebird sing, Mister Gloom is afraid of a song,
Go 'way, little blackbird, stay little bluebird, run, little raindrop, run.
You'd better go, for as sure as I live,
You're gonna wind up deep, deep down in the dreary river,
Run, little raindrop, run, get along, little cloud, get along,
I've got a date with a place in the sun, so run, little raindrop, run.
Chorus 2:
Run, little raindrop, run, get along, little cloud, get along,
I've got a date with a place in the sun, so run, little raindrop, run.
Sing, little bluebird sing, Mister Gloom is afraid of a song,
Go 'way, little blackbird, stay little bluebird, run, little raindrop, run.
You'd better go, for as sure as I live,
You're gonna wind up deep, deep down in the dreary river,
Run, little raindrop, run, get along, little cloud, get along,
I've got a date with a place in the sun, so run, little raindrop, run,
Run, little raindrop, run.
