A long time ago A million years B.C. The best things in life Were absolutely free But no one appreciated A sky that was always blue And no one congratulated A moon that was always new So it was planned that they would vanish Now and then And you must pay before you get them Back again That's what storms were made for And you shouldn't be afraid, for… Every time it rains, it rains Pennies from heaven Don't you know each cloud contains Pennies from heaven You'll find your fortunes falling all over the town Make sure that your umbrella is upside down Just trade them for a package of the sunshine and flowers ‘Cause if you want the things you love You must have showers So if you hear it thunder don't run under a tree There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me So if you go and hear it thunder don't run under a tree There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me There'll be pennies from heaven for you and me
