Lyrics

The Rain

[Verse 1]

She's the type of girl that makes you feel better

It don't matter how you used to feel

She's the kinda girl that follows good weather

And the sun brings out her sex appeal

[Pre-Chorus]

If you want to talk to her, it don't matter

You'll be breathless when she calls your name

Oh, I'll bet that you can hear the rain

[Chorus]

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

[Verse 2]

How do you think I can make you feel better?

How do I know what you say is real?

Writing an imaginary love letter

Talking mostly 'bout her sex appeal

[Pre-Chorus]

If you want to talk to her, it don't matter

You'll be breathless when she calls your name

Oh, I'll bet that you can hear the rain

[Chorus]

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright

These are the good times in your life

So put on a smile and it'll be alright
