Woke up my baby : come my love
Unlock the door : the sky's above
Are leaking : on your bed
Papa's in the rain : getting all wet
Getting all wet : getting all wet
And if I die : you will regret
Papa had : no place to go
You got a nice warm room : and so
Share it with papa : don't forget
Papa's in the rain : getting all wet
This rain ain't healthy : I've been told
Hear me cough : catching cold
Ain't no telling : what I'll get
Papa's in the rain : getting all wet
Papa's got : no coat at all
You got a raincoat : in your hall
This suit I told you : was too small
You nappy head : you knew it all
It lets me stand : but I can't sit
Papa's in the rain : getting all wet
Papa must eat : or he will die
You got pork chops: you got pie
Graveyard : is such a lonely place
Don't want dirt : thrown in my face
Pity old papa : and don't forget
Papa's in the rain : getting all wet
