It’s Gonna Rain (PASTE) Songtext
von Violent Femmes

Now who, who, who do you think I am?
Well, I built this ark with Japheth, Shem, and Ham
Now what, what, what do you think it′s gonna do
When I live by faith and now my work is through?

Yeah, It's gonna rain (it′s gonna rain)
It's gonna rain (it's gonna rain)
God said, "it′s gonna rain" (it′s gonna rain)
And I'm happy to say (it′s gonna rain)
Yeah, it's gonna rain on the world today

Now when, when, when I am in doubt
And I think that things for me will never work out
But where, where, where the heart is true
Ya know Lord, your God, will never forsake you


It′s gonna rain (it's gonna rain)
It′s gonna rain (it's gonna rain)
Yeah, it's gonna rain (it′s gonna rain)
And I′m happy to say (it's gonna rain)
Oh, it′s gonna rain
On the world today (alright, that's it, that′s the intro)

Now who, who, who do you think I am?
Well, I built this ark with Japheth, Shem, and Ham (those are my sons)
Now what, what, what do you think it's gonna do
When I live by faith and now my work is through?

Yeah, it′s gonna rain (it's gonna rain)
It's gonna rain (it′s gonna rain)
God said, "it′s gonna rain" (it's gonna rain)
And I′m happy to say (it's gonna rain)
Yeah, it′s gonna rain on the world today

40 days and 40 nights (it's gonna rain)
40 days and 40 nights (it′s gonna rain)
Hallelujah, it's alright (it's gonna rain)
Everybody′s sleepin′ tight (it's gonna rain)
Oh, it′s alright, it's alright, it′s alright, it's gonna rain tonight
