Candi Staton - It's Gonna Rain

Chorus / Description :

It's Gonna Rain Lyrics

This is a song my mother used to sing every evening after prayer when she took us on the front porch
I want to dedicate this one to Mama
We learned all of this from my mother
Every day we had to sing this song
She didn't let us rest until we sung this song

It's gonna rain, it's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
Said it won't be water but the fire next time!

It's gonna rain, it's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
Said it won't be water but the fire next time!

Way back in the Bible days
God told the people it's gonna rain
But when he told them, they paid him no mind
But when it happened, they were left behind

I'll tell you

It's gonna rain. Get ready. It's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
Said it won't be water but the fire next time!

They tell me when the rain began to pour
They knocked on the windows
They knocked on the doors
They said didn't know exactly what to do
Now, you don't want this to happen to you

It's gonna rain, it's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
It won't be water but the fire next time!

It's gonna rain, my children, it's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
It won't be water but fire next time!

Noah said I'm sorry I'm sorry my friend
God's got the key and you can't get in
If something don't happen to the heart of man
The same thing will happen again

I tell ya

It's gonna rain. Get ready. It's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
It won't be water but fire next time!

One more time

It's gonna rain. I tell you. It's gonna rain
You better get ready and bear this in mind
God showed Noah about the rainbow sign
It won't be water but the fire next time!
