about

“Ain’t Gonna Rain” adapted by Red Yarn from the traditional version, as published in Henry Spalding’s Encyclopedia of Black Folklore and Humor (1972). New lyrics by Andy Furgeson, 2015.

lyrics

Ain’t gonna rain
Ain’t gonna snow
Ain’t gonna rain no more
Cheer up everybody for
It ain’t gonna rain no more…

Old cow died at the fork of the branch
Ain’t gonna rain no more
The buzzards had a public dance
Ain’t gonna rain no more

What did the Oak Tree say to the crow?
Ain’t gonna rain no more
Floods they come and floods they go
Ain’t gonna rain no more

Ain’t gonna rain…

Rabbit ate my turnip top
Ain’t gonna rain no more
Off he ran with a hippity hop
Ain’t gonna rain no more

Rabbit read that rainbow sign
Ain’t gonna rain no more
No more water just fire next time
Ain’t gonna rain no more

Ain’t gonna rain…
