It's Raining Men - Single Version Lyrics
The Weather Girls
Lyrics
(Hi!) Hi!
We're your Weather Girls (uh-huh)
And have we got news for you (you better listen!)
Get ready, all you lonely girls
And leave those umbrellas at home (alright)
Humidity is rising (mmm, rising)
Barometer's getting low (how low, girl? Uh-oh)
According to all sources (what sources now?)
The street's the place to go (we better hurry up)
'Cause tonight for the first time (first time)
Just about half-past ten (half-past ten)
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men (start raining men)
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run and gonna let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men, every specimen!
Tall, blonde, dark, and lean
Rough and tough, and strong and mean
God bless Mother Nature (she's a single woman, too!)
She took on the Heavens (and she did what she had to do)
She (she) fought (fought) every angel, and rearranged the sky
So that each and every woman could find the perfect guy
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
I feel stormy weather moving in
About to begin (about to begin)
Hear (hear) the (the) thunder (thunder)
Don't (don't) you (you) lose (lose) your (your) head!
Rip off the roof and stay in bed (rip off the roof and stay in bed!) Oh
God bless Mother Nature (she's a single woman, too!)
She took on the Heavens (and she did what she had to do)
She (she) fought (fought) every angel, and rearranged the sky
So that each and every woman could find the perfect guy
(Oh) ooh, it's raining men, yeah!
Can't you feel it?
Humidity is rising (oh, humidity is rising)
Barometer's getting low (it's getting low, low, low)
According to all sources (according to all sources)
(According to all sources)
The street's the place to go
'Cause tonight for the first time (first time)
Just about half-past ten (half-past ten)
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men (start raining men)
It's raining men! (Woo) hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
It's raining men! Hallelujah! (what you do mean?)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
It's raining men!
Tall, blonde, dark, and lean
Rough and tough, and strong and mean
C'mon! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! It's raining men!
Whoo, it's raining men!
Follow me, follow me
