Lyrics Brook Benton

Brook Benton

Rainy Night In Georgia

Hovering by my suitcase,

Trying to find a warm place to spend the night

Heavy rain falling, seems I hear your voice calling

"It's all right"

A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia

It seems like it's raining all over the world

I feel like it's raining all over the world

Neon signs a-flashing, taxi cabs and buses passing through the night

A distant moaning of a train seems to play a sad refrain to the night

A rainy night in Georgia, such a rainy night in Georgia

Lord, I believe it's raining all over the world

I feel like it's raining all over the world

How many times I wondered

It still comes out the same

No matter how you look at it or think of it

It's life and you just got to play the game

I find me a place in a box car, so I take my guitar

To pass some time

Late at night when it's hard to rest I hold your picture to my chest

And I feel fine

But it's a rainy night in Georgia, baby, it's a rainy night in Georgia

I feel it's raining all over the world, kinda lonely now

And it's raining all over the world

Oh, have you ever been lonely, people?

And you feel that it was raining all over this man's world

You're talking 'bout raining, raining, raining

Raining, raining, raining...
