Stormy Weather

Ella Fitzgerald

Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky, stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together, keeps raining all the time
Life is bare, gloom and misery everywhere, stormy weather
Just can't get my poor self together
I'm weary, the time, the time
So weary all the time

When he went away the blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, that old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more

Can't go on, everything I had is gone, stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time

I walk around, heavy-hearted and sad
Night comes around, I'm still feelin' bad
Rain pourin' down and blindin' every hope I had
This pitterin', patterin', beatin' and spatterin' drive me mad
Love, love, love, love
This misery will be the end of me

When he went away the blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, that old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more

Can't go on, everything I had is gone, stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
The time

Keeps raining all the time
