Verse 1<br>

[she]<br>

I'm so sad to think that I had to<br>

Drive you from your home so coolly.<br>

<br>

[he]<br>

I'd be gaining nothing by remaining,<br>

What would Missus Grundy say?<br>

Her conventions, kindly recollect them!<br>

We must please respect them duly.<br>

<br>

[she]<br>

My intrusion needs explaining;<br>

I felt my courage waning.<br>

Please, I beg don't mention it!<br>

I should not mind a bit,<br>

But it has started raining.<br>

<br>

Refrain:<br>

<br>

[both]<br>

Oh, the rain comes a pitter, patter,<br>

And I'd like to be safe in bed.<br>

Skies are weeping, while the world is sleeping,<br>

Trouble heaping on our head.<br>

It is vain to remain and chatter,<br>

And to wait for a clearer sky,<br>

Helter skelter, I must fly for shelter<br>

Till the clouds roll by.<br>

<br>

Verse 2<br>

<br>

[she]<br>

What bad luck, It's coming down in buckets;<br>

Have you an umbrella handy?<br>

<br>

[he]<br>

I've a warm coat, waterproof, a storm coat,<br>

I shall be alright, I know.<br>

Later on, too, I will ward the grippe off,<br>

With a little nip of brandy.<br>

<br>

[she]<br>

Or a glass of toddy draining,<br>

You'd find that more sustaining.<br>

Don't be worried, I entreat,<br>

I've rubbers for my feet,<br>

So I don't mind it raining.<br>

<br>
