I am very pleased that Abra Nardo and David Simmons have made a professional recording of this song (complete song downloadable HERE) and others can be downloaded HERE. You will need to unzip the file to release the MP3. I am providing all songs for free download, but hope you will support this effort by purchasing my Metabolic Melody albums or calendar at the URLs at the bottom of the lyrics to this song.

Sum-mer time in the valley
Cloud-y skies
Rain’s re-turned for the season
Not such a nice surprise

Oh my! Where did the sun go?
Gloomy days
Full of raindrops a-falling
One season out of phase

Tonight I hope I’ll see the sky
But if I can’t I hope it dries up one day
The weather forecast missed it bad
Now all the local folks are mad
A drizz-ly Sun-Day

Down here under the rainbow
Hue and cry
Birds fly over our rainbows
Just trying to stay dry

(Instrumental section)

Down here under the rainbow
People scoff
Longing to be like eagles
So as to get dried off

If it is not December yet
Here in the valley
Why am I so wet?
