Standing in the rain

Charlie Daniels Band


I'm not a poet
I'm just a man
I'm not an angel
I'm just doing the best I can
I've got a heart
It feels pain
Just like anyone else
I don't like standing in the rain

Standing, standing, standing in the rain
Standing, standing, standing in the rain

Love is a miracle
You can see
I give it to you
Then you give it right back to me
You've got a heart
It feels pain
Just like anyone else
You don't like standing in the rain

If you do what you love
And love what you do
You can't get the blues
And the blues can't get you
It's the same old story
Since the beginning of time
Life without love
Is the cause of all crime

Standing, standing, standing in the rain
Standing, standing, standing in the rain

Talking in whispers
Leads to shame
Living in shadows
Baby, you'll be the they'll blame
Just like anyone else
They don't like standing in the rain

Standing, standing, standing in the rain
Standing, standing, standing in the rain
Just like anyone else
No one like standing cold and naked in the rain
Just like anyone else
No one likes standing cold and naked in the rain
