40 Days and 40 Nights Lyrics


Well, its been rainin' on and on
Ever since you've been gone
Those dark clouds keep rollin' in
And every time I think
I might catch myself a glimpse of sunlight
The bottom falls out again
Well, I can barely keep afloat
I'm up the creek without a boat
And I've been a driftin' heaven knows how long
'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days
And the 40 nights since you've been gone
Hey, well drip, drip, drip, goes the sound of the rain
The four winds are blowin' like a hurricane
My friends said I should settle for any port in a storm
I'd rather be inside your lovin' arms, safe and warm
Girl, it's been a long time since I've seen sunshine
Baby won't you come back home
'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days

And the 40 night since you've been gone
Aw, listen to me now
I keep starin' out the window
Searchin' for a rainbow
To signal that the storm will end
Hey 'cause I know that the rain'll keep pourin' on the pane
Until my saint comes back marchin' in
Oh, girl it's been a long time since I've seen sunshine
Baby, won't you come back home
'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days
And 40 the nights since you've been gone
Hey, well drip, drip, drip, goes the sound of the rain
The four winds are blowin' like a hurricane
My friends said I should settle for any port in a storm
I'd rather be inside your lovin' arms, safe and warm
Girl, it's been a long time since I've seen sunshine
But baby won't you come back home
'Cause it's been rainin' 40 days
And the 40 nights since you've been gone
Yeah, it's been rainin' 40 days
And the 40 nights since you've been gone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Muddy Waters (McKinley Morganfield, Issaquena County, Mississippi, April 4, 1913 - Westmont, Illinois, April 30, 1983) was an American blues musician and is generally considered "the father of chicago blues." His career spanned over thirty years and he produced what are considered to be some of the finest blues songs ever, such as Hoochie Coochie Man, Mannish Boy and Got My Mojo Working. Muddy Waters is generally considered one of the most influential bluesmen of all time. His fondness for playing in mud earned him the nickname "Muddy" at an early age.
