Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head

Bobbie Gentry

Record Details

Released
1970

Written by Burt Bacharach, Hal David

Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin’ seems to fit
Those raindrops are fallin’ on my head, they keep fallin’

So I just did me some talkin’ to the sun
And I said I didn’t like the way he got things done
Sleepin’ on the job
Those raindrops are fallin’ on my head they keep fallin’

But there’s one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won’t defeat me
It won’t be long ’til happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
But that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turnin’ red
Cryin’s not for me
‘Cause
I’m never gonna stop the rain by complainin’
Because I’m free
Nothin’s worryin’ me

It won’t be long
‘Til happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head
But that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turnin’ red
Cryin’s not for me
‘Cause
I’m never gonna stop the rain by complainin’
Because I’m free
Nothin’s worryin’
Meeeeee
