Blackbird shivers on the old clothes line

When I oughta be hanging out my sheets

Just when I get to thinking that the sun's gonna shine

Well, here you come

Here you come raining on me



A shadow passes like a slow coal train

Dropping off trouble and grief

After tryin' to get to seein' daylight again

Well, here you come, here you come rainin'

Here you come raining on me



You're an old black cloud in a clear blue sky

Sneaking up on my heart's blind side

Just like every teardrop I've ever cried

Ever cried



You're an old dog traveling in a pack of lies

The last thing a good woman needs

Spent my last forty dollars on a curl and dry

And here you come, here you come rainin'

Here you come raining on me



I said, here you come, here you come,

Here you come raining on me, on me
