Let it E7rain, Edim7let it pour, E7let it rain a A7whole lot more
'Cause E7I got them deep river B7blues
E7Let the rain Edim7drive right on, E7let the waves A7sweep along
'Cause E7I got them B7deep river Eblues
E7My old gal's a Edim7good old pal, and E7she looks like a A7water fowl
When E7I get them deep river B7blues
E7Ain't no one to Edim7cry for me, and the E7fish all go out A7on a spree
When E7I get them B7deep river Eblues
