Lyrics
Better get the children inside
Better close the windows tight
They're saying on the radio
There's gonna be a thunderstorm
Tonight
Better get the children inside
Better close the windows tight
They're saying on the radio
There's gonna be a thunderstorm
Tonight
It's been too dry too long now
The grass has all turned brown
See that cumulonimbus forming
Gonna wash some life into
This town
You can almost hear the garden saying 'Thank you'
You can almost feel relief beneath the ground
Hear the rock and roll men hummin'
That the thunderstorm is comin'
I been so dry
I wish that I could drown
Wish that I could drown
Everybody's made of water
Everybody smells the rain
Listen for the sound of thunder
Make us feel like animals
Again
Better than the sweetest music
Better than a mandolin
Better get the big umbrella
Look at all the goosebumps
On my skin
You can almost see the flowers doing warm-ups
You can almost see the trees stretch out their limbs
Doesn't matter what you're doin'
You know the storm is brewin'
You can feel it in the whistle of the wind
Whistle of the wind
Say you wanna go outside
Say you wanna take a ride
Well, be advised the skies are looking gray
You don't wanna be exposed
When this kind of weather shows
But I might just go dancing
On the lawn today
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now?
Couldn't be more ready
If I played guitar like this
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now?
Couldn't be more ready
If I played the bass like this
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now? Yeah, yeah
Are you ready for the rain now?
Couldn't be more ready
If they let me hear a drum
Better get the children inside
Better close the windows tight
They're saying on the radio
They're gonna wash the gullies out
Tonight
There's gonna be a storm
And you can almost hear the garden saying 'Thank you'
You can almost feel relief beneath the ground
Doesn't matter what you're doin'
You know the storm is brewin'
And I been so dry
I wish that I could drown
Wish that I could drown
Wish that I could drown
Wish that I could drown now
So bring it down now
Hey ya
