(Ted Koehler/Harold Arlen)

I don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
It's raining all the time

When he went away
The blues came in and met me
If he stays away
That old rocking chair's gonna get me
All I do is pray
My lord will let me
Walk in the sun once more

I can't go on
Everything I have in life is gone
Stormy weather
Just can't get my gal and I ain't together
It's raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
