Every time my ship comes in, a hurricane blows it out again Stormy weather seems to hang around my door My sweet bird of paradise flew the coop on me last night
Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don´t it pour
I got a letter from the IRS, they said, son, you´re in a hell of a mess Our computer shows you owe ten-thousand more That machine´s made a bad mistake ´cause that´s more than this poor boy makes Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don´t it pour
Every time it rains I just washed my car The whole neighborhood goes swimming in my front yard Well, my mother-in-law says she´s staying three weeks more Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don´t it pour
Just got my car out of the shop, two blocks down the street it stopped I went to use the telephone at the grocery store I walked back to my Chevrolet, but they towed that sucker away Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don´t it pour
Every time it rains I just washed my car The whole neighborhood goes swimming in my front yard Well, my mother-in-law says she´s staying three weeks more Oh, and every time it rains, Lord don´t it pour
