Raindrops falling in the puddle
Won't stop me running through the street
You won't find me looking for some cover
My mother keeps calling from the porch
She's gonna scold me later 'cause she knows of course
Somehow I'm bound to get my feet wet
She says "A cold is gonna catch you, catch you something fierce
You'd better come inside, you'd better come right here."
But the raindrops falling in the puddle
Won't stop me running through the street
You won't find me looking for some cover
And how many times do I have to tell you
That I don't need no stinking umbrella
I'm gonna run full speed through the gutter 'til I'm soaking
Because this ain't no small spring shower it's the real thing
But a cold is gonna catch you, catch you something fierce
You'd better come inside, you'd better come right here
Girl a cold is gonna catch you, catch you while you sleep
Babe the river is rising and the water is getting deep
Hey everybody come on out and get your feet wet
Send old father fear packing
Come on out and make the most of it
They're gonna tell you to be careful every single day
'Cause if you don't you're gonna get yourself hurt, they say
I'll take the pain, the failure, and that old heartache
Because life is a risk that you have to take
But a cold is gonna catch you, catch you something fierce
You'd better come inside, you'd better come right here___
But the raindrops falling in the puddle
Won't stop me running through the street___
But the raindrops falling in the puddle
Won't stop me running through the street
You won't find me looking for some cover
My mother keeps calling from the porch
She's gonna scold me later 'cause she knows of course
Somehow I'm bound to get my feet wet
