April Showers 1921 Al Jolson

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 25 Apr 2005

Life is not a highway strewn with flowers,
still it holds a goodly share of bliss,
when the sun gives way to April showers,
here's the point that you should never miss.

Though April showers may come your way,
they bring the flowers that bloom in May
so if it's raining have no regrets
because it isn't raining rain you know,
it's raining violets,
and when you see clouds upon the hills,
you soon will see crowds of daffodils,
so keep on looking for a bluebird
and list'ning for his song,
when ever April showers come along.

Though April showers may come your way,
they bring the flowers that bloom in May
so if it's raining have no regrets
because it isn't raining rain you know,
it's raining violets,
and when you see clouds upon the hills,
you soon will see crowds of daffodils,
so keep on looking for a bluebird
and list'ning for his song,
when ever April showers come along.

I have learned to smile when skies are gloomy,
smile through all my heart's about to break,
when I know that trouble's coming to me,
here's the happy attitude I take.

Though April showers may come your way,
they bring the flowers that bloom in May
so if it's raining have no regrets
because it isn't raining rain you know,
it's raining violets,
and when you see clouds upon the hills,
you soon will see crowds of daffodils,
so keep on looking for a bluebird
and list'ning for his song,
when ever April showers come along.

Though April showers may come your way,
they bring the flowers that bloom in May
so if it's raining have no regrets
because it isn't raining rain you know,
it's raining violets,
and when you see clouds upon the hills,
you soon will see crowds of daffodils,
so keep on looking for a bluebird
and list'ning for his song,
when ever April showers come along.
