'Cause it's sure to be rainin' outdoors
When a woman's in trouble everybody puts her down
She looks for her good man, Lord, he can't be found
You better come on into my kitchen
'Cause it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
There's a cold wind blowin', leaves tremblin' on the trees
Don't you know that that good girl, ya, she's leaving me?
You better come on into my kitchen
'Cause it's going to be rainin' outdoors
The woman I've been lovin' left with my best friend
That joker got lucky, stole her back again
You better come on into my kitchen
'Cause it's going to be raining outdoors
Well, that good girl's leavin', she ain't comin' back
Took her last nickel from her notion sack
You better come on into my kitchen
'Cause it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
Mama's dead and gone, father's nowheres to be
I ain't got nobody to love and care for me
You better come on into my kitchen
'Cause it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
Yes, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
Yes, it's goin' to be rainin' outdoors
