Graham Parker & The Figgs - If It Ever Stops Raining lyrics

I hear the whole East Coast is socked in By a strong Northeaster's And it doesn't look like it's gonna end real soon You've been stuck up there in the mountains While I been swannin' around the West Coast But I'll swear I'm gonna make it back there soon, yeah And if it ever stops rainin' If the sun ever breaks through and shines down from on high I'll do all those things, I keep complainin' that I'm not doin' And I'll put my arms around you under the blue blue sky Blue blue sky, blue blue sky Well, the bus stops and the stations are all empty The cab driver says my plane's delayed But I'll give him a tip to bu*ton his lip and get me to the airport And I'll pay the pilot extra to get me on my way And if it ever stops rainin' If the sun ever breaks through and shines down from on high I'll do all those things, you keep complainin' that I'm not doin' And we'll walk outside together under the blue blue sky Blue blue sky So have patience, dear, have patience I'm not making excuses I hear the driveway got washed out And the basement's sprung a leak Yeah, the fence posts are collapsing And the stream has blown its sluices But I'm coming back tomorrow Or at least some time next week And if it ever stops rainin' If the sun ever breaks through and shines down from on high I'll do all those things, I keep complainin' that I'm not doin' And I'll put my arms around you, yeah, I'll put my arms around you Yeah, I'll put my arms around you under the blue blue sky Blue blue sky If it ever stops rainin', blue blue sky If it ever stops rainin', blue blue sky Blue blue sky, blue blue sky
