I woke up early in the morning Just to hear the sound of the blue rain fall, all around I woke up this morning Saw the blue rain fall Lord, I woke up this morning Some folk didn't wake up at all Had that blues for my breakfast Blues in my head You dressed me and possessed me Man, you know that I ain't dead Woke up in the morning Saw the blue rain fall Lord, I woke up this morning Some folk didn't wake up at all God knows I ain't complainin' Sometimes I still do When the rain falls with a vengeance Separatin' me from you I woke up this morning Just like I'm used to do Crawled outta bed, what am I supposed to do? Heaven's tears fallin', Lord, help me love like You If I can stop one heart from breakin' Shall not live in vain Ease one life from achin' Or cool warm pain Help one faintin' robin Into his nest again I shall not live in vain So, what about the rain? Without it nothin' grows at all Wakin' up in the mornin' Thankful for that blue rain fall Blue rain fall, oh-oh
