Song Lyrics

[Barbarafb]

Anyone remember the song about the rain - something like this:

If we didn't have rain, we couldn't have flowers,
We couldn't have flowers if we didn't have showers,
There'd be no place to swim,
There'd be no babbling brook,
There'd be no fish to catch on the end of a hook.
We couldn't wash our hands and face,
They'd be as black as coal,
All day we'd face the barren wastes,
Looking for a water hole.....
and so on....

I think Max Bygraves sang it.

Please put me out of my misery. All my family and friends are adamant that I made this up!!

It is from a 1956 film called "A Cry From The Streets", by Max Bygraves.


If you didn't have rain then you couldn't have showers;
If you didn't have showers then you couldn't have flowers.
There'd be no place to swim,
There'd be no babbling brook,
There'd be no fish to catch at the end of a hook.
You'd be so awfully dirty,
You'd be as black as ink,
All day you'd face the barren waste-
Looking for a nice cool drink.
So you've gotta have rain every now and then
To make the whole world shine,
Then everyday will turn out fine.



so... you're not mad after all =o)
