Runny Night in Georgia Songtext
von Brook Benton

Hoverin′ by my suitcase
Tryin' to find a warm place
To spend the night
Heavy rain fallin′
Seems I hear your voice callin'
It's all right

A rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia
Lord, I believe it′s rainin′ all over the world
I feel like it's rainin′ all over the world

Neon signs a-flashin'
Taxicabs and buses
Passin′ through the night
A distant moanin' of a train
Seems to play a sad refrain to the night


A rainy night in Georgia
Such a rainy night in Georgia
Lord I believe it′s rainin' all over the world
I feel like it's rainin′ all over the world

How many times I wondered
It still comes out the same
No matter how you look at it or think of it
Well it′s life, and you just got to play the game

I find me a place in a boxcar
So I take my guitar
To pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest
And I feel fine, I

But it′s a rainy night in Georgia
Baby, it's a rainy night in Georgia
I feel it′s rainin' all over the world
Kinda lonely there and it′s rainin' all over the world


Oh have you ever been lonely people
And you feel that it was raining all over this man's world
You talkin′ ′bout rainin',rainnin′, rainin', rainin′, rainin'
A-rainin′, a-rainin', rainin' over the world
I said now rainin′,rainnin′, rainin', rainin′, rainin'
