Hoverin' by my suitcase tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
Heavy rain a fallin' seems I hear your voice callin' it's all right
On a rainy night in Georgia a rainy night in Georgia
I believe I believe it's rainin' all over the world

Neon signs a flashin' taxicabs and buses passin' through the night
The distant moanin' of a train seems to play a sad refrain onto the night
Rainy night in Georgia a rainy night in Georgia
I believe I believe it's rainin' all over the world

How many times I've wondered it still comes out the same
And no matter how you look at it think of it
You got to do your own pain

So I find me a boxcar and I take out my guitar to pass the time
Late at night now when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest and feel fine
But it's a rainy night in Georgia it's a rainy night in Georgia
And I believe it must be rainin' all over the world
