  • My daddy spent his life lookin' up at the sky
    He'd cuss, kick the dust, sayin', "Son, it's way too dry"
    It clouds up in the city, the weather man complains
    But where I come from, rain is a good thing

    Rain makes corn, corn makes whiskey
    Whiskey makes my baby feel a little frisky
    Back roads are boggin' up, my buddies pile up in my truck
    We hunt our hunnies down, we take 'em into town
    Start washin' all our worries down the drain
    Rain is a good thing

    Ain't nothin' like a kiss out back in the barn
    Wringin' out our soakin' clothes, ridin' out a thunderstorm
    When the tin roof gets to talkin', that's the best love we make
    Yeah, where I come from, rain is a good thing

    Rain makes corn, corn makes whiskey
    Whiskey makes my baby feel a little frisky
    Back roads are boggin' up, my buddies pile up in my truck
    We hunt our hunnies down, we take 'em into town
    Start washin' all our worries down the drain
    Rain is a good thing

    Farmer Johnson does a little dance
    Creek's on the rise, roll up your pants
    Country girls, they wanna cuddle
    Kids out playin' in a big mud puddle

    Rain makes corn, corn makes whiskey
    Whiskey makes my baby
    Back roads are boggin' up, my buddies pile up in my truck
    We hunt our hunnies down, we take 'em into town
    Start washin' all our worries down the drain
    Rain is a good thing
    Rain is a good thing
    Rain is a good thing
    Rain is a good thing Writer/s: Dallas Davidson, Thomas Luther Bryan
