Rain, rain,
Go away;
Come again,
Another day;
Little Johnny
Wants to play.
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
Daddy wants to play
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
Mommy wants to play
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
Brother wants to play
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
Sister wants to play
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
Baby wants to play
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain go away
Come again another day
All the family wants to play
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain, you can stay.
We can still go out today.
Our family wants to play.
We can still have fun this way!
