It's Raining, It's Pouring
This song is sung to the tune of "A Tisket, A Tasket".
It's Raining, It's Pouring
Children's Song
It's raining, it's pouring,
The old man is snoring.
He went to bed and he
Bumped his head
And he couldn't get up in the morning.
Notes
Nancy Kennison wrote, "One poem I looked at [on Mama Lisa's World] was 'It's raining, It's pouring'. My family, as well as some rhyming books I had as a child, had a slightly different version. I thought I would share it with you..."
It's raining,
It's pouring.
The old man is snoring.
He bumped his head
When he went to bed
And won't get up 'till morning.
Here's the version in the mp3:
It's raining, it's pouring,
The old man is snoring.
He bumped his head
On top of the bed
And couldn't get up
In the morning.
Thanks to Calvin and Lila for recording this song!
