I'll Be Your Rain-Beau 1902

Two lovers spooning,
In love tones crooning,
within a summer house alone;
While they sit dreaming,
The rain comes teeming,
She says to him in fretful tone:
"Oh quit your vexing,
This storm's perplexing."
"My love," says he, her heart to cheer,
"Tho' raindrops patter,
That doesn't matter,
I'll be your rainbeau, Hannah dear."

I'll be your rainbeau
I'll beam for you;
I'll make your heart glow
so fond and true;
My love will shine in darkest hours,
Shield you from all storms and showers;
I'll be your rainbeau,
I'll beam for you.

I'll be your rainbeau
I'll beam for you;
I'll make your heart glow
so fond and true;
My love will shine in darkest hours,
Shield you from all storms and showers;
I'll be your rainbeau,
I'll beam for you.

Says she: Affection is no protection,
A "bumber shoot" you ought to own."
Just then a fellah
with silk umbrella
Steps up and says:
"I'll 'scort you home."
She leaves her lover,
Gets under cover,
The new beau sees her to her door;
"Come in," says Hannah,
"I like your manner,
You are the rainbeau I adore."

I'll be your rainbeau
I'll beam for you;
I'll make your heart glow
so fond and true;
My love will shine in darkest hours,
Shield you from all storms and showers;
I'll be your rainbeau,
I'll beam for you.

I'll be your rainbeau
I'll beam for you;
I'll make your heart glow
so fond and true;
My love will shine in darkest hours,
Shield you from all storms and showers;
I'll be your rainbeau,
I'll beam for you.
