Hoverin' by my suitcase
Tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
A heavy rain a fallin' seems
I hear your voice a callin' it's all right
On this rainy night in Georgia
A rainy night in Georgia

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
On this rainy night in Georgia
Such a rainy night in Georgia

I think, it's rainin' all over the world
How many times I have wondered
But it always comes out the same
No matter how I look at it'll think about it
It's just like some of its pleasures
Some of its pain

I find me a place in a boxcar
So I take out my guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest
I hold your picture to my chest
And then I'm all right
But it's still a rainy night in Georgia
It's a rainy night in Georgia

I believe it must be rainin' all over this world
All over the world rainy night in Georgia
