Lyrics
Humidity's risin'
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go

Cos tonight for the first time (first time)
Just about half past ten (half past ten)
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men (start raining men)

It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen
It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen

(Ow!)

Humidity's risin'
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go

Cos tonight for the first time (first time)
Just about half past ten (half past ten)
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men (start raining men)

It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen
I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna let myself get
Absolutley soaking wet

It's rainin men - Hallejulah
It's rainin men - Every specimen
Tall blonde, dark and mean
Rough and tough and strong and lean

God bless Mother Nature
She's a single woman too
She took over heaven
And she did what she had to do

She taught every Angel
To rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman
Could find the perfect guy

It's raining men
(Go get yourself wet girl, I know you want to!)

I feel stormy weather moving in
About to begin (about to to begin)
Hear the thunder, don't you loose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed (rip off the roof and stay)

It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen
It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen

It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen
It's raining men - Hallejulah
It's raining men - Amen

It's raining men
(Repeat to fade)
