Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time

Life is bare, gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor old self together
I'm weary all the time, the time, so weary all of the time

When he went away, the blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above
Will let me walk in the sun once more

Can't go on, everything I had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all of the time

I walk around, heavy-hearted and sad
Night comes around and I'm still feeling bad
Rain pouring down, blinding every hope I had
This pitter and patter and beating and spattering driving me mad

Love, love, love, love
This misery will be the end of me

When he went away, the blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above
Will let me walk in the sun once more

Can't go on, everything I had is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time, the time
Keeps raining all the time
