Oh it's raining, raining, raining here this morning 
As I sit in jail and hang my head in shame 
With a smile I try to greet each early dawning
But they've given me a number for my name 

   Many a little raindrops are falling close to me 
   Makes the streams and rivers just as muddy as can be 
   It's raining, raining, raining here this morning 
   As the Mississippi flows on to the sea 

How I wish that I could see my little darling 
And hold her in my arms just as before 
I used to tell her every day I loved her 
But now she doesn't love me anymore 

   She knew that I was guiltless of this one crime 
   And said that she'd be waiting there for me 
   But she has found somewhere else to wander 
   Where the Mississippi flows on to the sea 

Its raining, raining, raining here this morning 
And I am just as weary as can be 
I wish that I could follow all the raindrops 
Down the Mississippi toward the silver sea 

   But there's no way to prove that I'm not guilty 
   So I will have to suffer all the shame 
   Go and tell her for me little raindrops 
   That they've given me a number for my name
