It's Raining Men Lyrics

Alright girl we are back again

Hi! Hi! We're your weather girls and have we got news for you

Tell them girl

Get ready all you'll lonely girls

And leave those umbrellas at home

Humidity's rising, barometer's gettin' low

According to all sources the street's the place to go

Tonight for the first time just about half past ten

For the first time in history it's gonna start raining men

It's raining men, Hallelujah, it's raining men Amen

I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna let myself get absolutely soaking wet

It's raining men, Hallelujah it's raining men, every specimen

Tall blond dark and lean rough and tough and strong and mean

God bless mother nature

She's a single woman too

She took for the Heaven

And she did what she had to do

She taught every angel to rearrange the sky

And each and every woman could find her perfect guy

It's raining men, Hallelujah, it's raining men, Amen

It's raining men, Hallelujah, it's raining men, Amen

It's raining, it's raining, oh it's stormy

I feel stormy weather moving in

About to begin about to begin

With the thunder don't you loose your head

Rip off the roof and stay in bed

God bless mother nature

She's a single woman too

She took for the Heaven

And she did what she had to do

She taught every angel to rearrange the sky

So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy

Oh it's raining men, yeah

Humidity's rising, barometer's gettin' low

According to all sources the street's the place to go

Tonight for the first time just about half past ten

For the first time in history it's gonna start raining men

It's raining men, Hallelujah, it's raining men, Amen

It's raining men, Hallelujah, it's raining men, Amen

It's raining men, Hallelujah, it's raining men, Amen
