The David Mayfield Parade - Rain on my Parade lyrics
rate meI went to the doctor
He told me I was sick
I said don’t you go and heal me doctor
Unless you can do it quick
I’ve been living in darkness so lung
It must be true
I thought a lot of reasons
So that I could clear
Little sunshine on the …
When I’m up
You’re down
When I’m down
You’re up
It seems like there are more down ups these days
And I won’t let your black cloud
Rain on my parade
Instrumental
Then I went to the preacher
So he could save my soul
We sang a couple of songs
But it was something wrong
And nothing would take hold
Then I heard his sweet voice calling
I thought it might be you
But it was just a black howl callin’
And there ain’t nothing no one can do
When I’m up
You’re down
When I’m down
You’re up
It seems like there are more down ups these days
And I won’t let your black cloud
Rain on my parade
Instrumental
Then I went to the river
I wish it was the sea
I had a revelation there
That you would not believe
I called for you baby
I fell to my knees
I saw my reflection
And it didn’t look like me
When I’m up
You’re down
When I’m down
You’re up
It seems like there are more down ups these days
And I won’t let your black cloud
Rain on my parade
