Hoverin' by my suitcase, 
tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
Heavy rains are fallin', 
seems I hear your voice callin' "It's all right."

A rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia
It seems like it's rainin' all over the world
I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

Neon signs a-flashin', 
taxi cabs and buses passin' through the night
A distant moanin' of a train 
seems to play a sad refrain to the night

A rainy night in Georgia, such a rainy night in Georgia
I believe that it's rainin' all over the world
I feel like it's rainin' all over the world

How many times I wondered
It still comes out the same
No matter how you look at it or think of it
It's life and we just got to play the game

I shake the rain from my sweater
Take out your letters
To pass some time 
Late at night when it's hard to rest 
I hold your picture to my chest and I feel fine, fine

But it's a rainy night in Georgia, 
Such a rainy night in Georgia 
I feel that it's rainin' all over the world, 
Lord I feel like it’s rainin’ all over the world

Rainy night Yeah Such a rainy night
It keeps on raining
Rainy night
Oh … all over the world
Such a rainy night

It’s kind of lonely darlin’
Ad it keeps on raining
