Lyrics
First big drops on the old tin roof Pitter, patter, that's the proof Open the door, the sky is wide Everybody's running outside Hear it coming, hear it fall Rain is calling out to all Rain, rain, dance with me On the rooftop tin, one, two, three Splash, splash, here we go Warm monsoon, steal the show Rain, rain, clap it out Sing it loud and shout, shout, shout Splash, splash, to and fro Let the monsoon flow, flow, flow Aunties laughing with their saris wet Kids in puddles, no regret Mango trees are shaking their leaves Rainbow rising, can you believe Hear it coming, hear it fall Rain is calling out to all Rain, rain, dance with me On the rooftop tin, one, two, three Splash, splash, here we go Warm monsoon, steal the show Rain, rain, clap it out Sing it loud and shout, shout, shout Splash, splash, to and fro Let the monsoon flow, flow, flow When I say rain, you say pour When I say rain, you say more Rain, pour, rain, more Rain, pour, rain, more Everybody hear the roar Rain, rain, dance with me On the rooftop tin, one, two, three Splash, splash, here we go Warm monsoon, steal the show Rain, rain, clap it out Sing it loud and shout, shout, shout Splash, splash, to and fro Let the monsoon flow, flow, flow Rain, rain, dance with me Flow, flow, flow
