Let It Rain Let It Pour 1925

Haven't seen a rainbow
since I've been away
all my skies are cloudy
raining ev'ry day,
but soon I'll find a rainbow
'cause I'm gonna go
to a little Paradise
where rainbows glow, so:

Let it rain let it pour
there ain't no rain where I'm headin' for,
I'll be in Virginia in the morning,
where the skies always blue,
the bright sunshine seems to welcome you,
when that dewy Dixie day is dawning.
There I'll meet my sweet forgetmenot,
there is where I'll live and love a lot,
I'm shoutin' let it rain, let it pour!
Say! I won't cry but I'll smile once more
I'll be in Virginia in the morning.

Let it rain let it pour
there ain't no rain where I'm headin' for,
I'll be in Virginia in the morning,
Casey Jones, he's my friend,
he'll wake me up at my journey's end,
when that dewy Dixie day is dawning.
Picture me when I get off that train,
in my dear old Mammy's arms again,
Say if you see a pin, pick it up,
'cause I found one and I had good luck
I'll be in Virginia in the morning.

All my worry's over
no more feeling blue
I was just a rover
and I never knew
how much a kind and true friend means,
but now I know,
one more day and my old pal
will say Hello! So:

Let it rain let it pour
there ain't no rain where I'm headin' for,
I'll be in Virginia in the morning,
where the skies always blue,
the bright sunshine seems to welcome you,
when that dewy Dixie day is dawning.
There I'll meet my sweet forgetmenot,
there is where I'll live and love a lot,
I'm shoutin' let it rain, let it pour!
Say! I won't cry but I'll smile once more
I'll be in Virginia in the morning.

Let it rain let it pour
there ain't no rain where I'm headin' for,
I'll be in Virginia in the morning,
Casey Jones, he's my friend,
he'll wake me up at my journey's end,
when that dewy Dixie day is dawning.
Picture me when I get off that train,
in my dear old Mammy's arms again,
Say if you see a pin, pick it up,
'cause I found one and I had good luck
I'll be in Virginia in the morning.
