[Verse 1:]
Worked construction for a while in St. Louis
I was helping build a great big new motel
It rained so much I couldn't make the payments
I sold my car it didn't run too well
Got a job at makin' stoke ice in Ohio
But it rained so much I moved along again
It never seemed to rain when you were with me
Or I just didn't notice rain back then

[Chorus:]
Oh, it rained in every town except Paducah
In a way it reminds me of you
It rained in every town except Paducah
Then one day it rain in Paducah too

[Verse 2:]
Got a job at stringin' wire down in Atlanta
Didn't rain too much but there's a constant mist
I read two books and learned to play canasta
Till I got bored and I gave it up for this
I rode that stream machine out the fairground
I lost some ways but then I put it back
It rained as I was walking back to Pete Street
I used to be afraid of things like that
