Didn't it rain, children

Oh yes, didn’t it (Didn't it?)

You know it did (Didn't it?)

Didn’t it, woah my lord

Didn't it rain

Well it rained forty days, it rained forty nights

Wasn't no land nowhere in sight

God sent the raven to spread the news

Hoist his wings and away he flew

To the east, to the west, north to the south

All day, all night, how it rained, how it rained

Tell me, didn't it rain, a-rain, a-rain, children

Rain, oh my lord

Didn't it (Didn't it?)

You know it did (Didn't it?)

Didn't it, woah my lord

Didn’t it rain

Knock at the window, knock at the door

Cryin’ brother, can't you take a couple more

Brother said, well, your wallet looks a little thin

If you can’t pay, you'd better learn to swim

Water risin' (In the mornin')

Water risin’ (At noon)

Water risin' (In the evening)

Keep a-risin' all day long

Keep a-risin' all night long

Tell me, didn't it rain, a-rain, a-rain, children

Rain, oh my lord

Didn't it (Didn't it?)

You know it did (Didn't it?)

Didn't it, woah my lord

Didn't it rain

Tell me, didn't it rain, a-rain, a-rain, children

Rain, oh my lord

Didn't it (Didn't it?)

You know it did (Didn't it?)

Didn't it, woah my lord

Didn't it rain

Tell me, didn't it rain, a-rain, a-rain, children

Rain, oh my lord

Didn't it (Didn't it?)

You know it did (Didn't it?)

Didn't it, woah my lord

Didn't it rain

Tell me, didn't it rain, a-rain, a-rain, children

Rain, oh my lord

Didn't it (Didn't it?)

You know it did (Yes!)

Didn't it, woah my lord

Didn't it rain
