Every time it rains, it rains pennies from heaven Don't you know each cloud contains pennies from heaven? You'll find your fortune's fallin' all over the town Be sure that your umbrella is upside down Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers If you want the things you love, you must have showers So, when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me Every time, every time it rains, it's gonna rain pennies from heaven Don't you know every cloud contains lots of pennies from heaven You'll find your fortune's fallin', baby, all over the town Be sure, be sure that your umbrella is upside down Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers If you want the things you love, you've got to have showers So, when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me
