[Verse 1]

Woke out of bed

Surrounded by a broken glass

Man, the morning's rough

'Cause grieving is a tines

This drink won't be my last

[Chorus]

Southern rain is here to stay

And you know I'm thinking of

A cloud of judgment day

Southern rain

[Verse 2]

Tumbling out

Out of love with her I swear

Even though the times are good

From looking at the past

She's not the one I loved

[Chorus]

Southern rain is here to stay

And you know I'm thinking of

A cloud of judgment day

[Bridge]

Through the dust, missed your touch

You refused to take me back

When I weep, the future's bleak

You're the life in me

[Chorus]

Southern rain is here to stay

And you know I'm thinking of

A cloud of judgment day

Southern rain

Southern rain
