it's raining here this morning
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
