Stormy Weather Lyrics
Don't know why
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Life is bare
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor self together
I'm weary all the time, the time
So weary all of the time
When he went away
The blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can't go on
All I have in life is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
There's no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Life is bare
Gloom and misery everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can't get my poor self together
I'm weary all the time, the time
So weary all of the time
When he went away
The blues walked in and met me
If he stays away, old rocking chair will get me
All I do is pray the Lord above will let me
Walk in the sun once more
Can't go on
All I have in life is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
I walk around
Heavy-hearted and sad
Night comes around
And I'm still feeling bad
Rain pourin' down
Blinding every hope I had
This pitterin', patterin', beatin' and spatterin'
Drives me mad
Love, love, love, love
This misery is just too much for me
Can't go on
All I have in life is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
Heavy-hearted and sad
Night comes around
And I'm still feeling bad
Rain pourin' down
Blinding every hope I had
This pitterin', patterin', beatin' and spatterin'
Drives me mad
Love, love, love, love
This misery is just too much for me
Can't go on
All I have in life is gone
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain't together
Keeps raining all the time
Keeps raining all the time
About
Genius Annotation
Ethel Waters was the first to perform “Stormy Weather” in the legendary Cotton Club in 1933, and subsequently cut the first recording of what would become one of the most enduring American standards. The song was such a hit that the Cotton Club’s first ever entire floor review changed its name from The Cotton Club Parade of 1933 to Stormy Weather Revue.
