It was a rainy day in Richmond when I've found out what she had done

She walked right out of my life in her hour of fun

They thought I'd gone to Baltimore and never suspected a thing

They didn't know I was following them right down to their shame

A shower of tears fell from my eyes hurt in every one

I couldn't believe what I had seen and what my woman had done

Oh I never thought my baby could ever give me room for doubt

It was a rainy day in Richmond the day that I found out

I followed close behind them to the love nest they had found

Then the pain came down so hard I stopped and turned around

I'd seen enough to tell me there wasn't any doubt

It was a rainy day in Richmond the day that I found out

Oh rainy day in Richmond the day that I found out
