Hoverin' by my
suitcase, tryin' to find a warm place to spend
the night
Heavy rain fallin', seems I hear
your voice callin' "It's all right."
A rainy
night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia
It
seems like it's rainin' all over the world
I
feel like it's rainin' all over the
world

Neon signs a-flashin', taxi cabs and
buses passin' through the night
A distant
moanin' of a train seems to play a sad refrain to
the night
A rainy night in Georgia, such a
rainy night in Georgia
Lord, I believe it's
rainin' all over the world
I feel like it's
rainin' all over the world

How many times
I wondered
It still comes out the same
No
matter how you look at it or think of it
It's
life and you just got to play the
game



I
find me a place in a box car, so I take my guitar
to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard
to rest I hold your picture to my chest and I
feel fine
(minor scat) But it's a rainy night
in Georgia, baby, it's a rainy night in Georgia
I
feel it's rainin' all over the world, kinda
lonely now And it's rainin' all over
the
world

Oh, have you ever been
lonely, people?
And you feel that it was
rainin' all over this man's world
You're
talking 'bout rainin', rainin', rainin', rainin',
rainin', rainin', rainin',
rainin', rainin'
rainin', rainin', rainin'
