Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head
Bacharach Lyrics

Raindrops keep falling on my head
The singer is annoyed that the raindrops keep falling on his head.

And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
The singer feels like he doesn't fit in, just like the guy with feet too big for his bed.

Nothin' seems to fit
The singer feels like nothing in his life is the right size or shape for him.

Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
The raindrops are continuing to fall on the artist's head.

So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
The artist is talking to the sun, likely metaphorically, about his frustration with the rain.

And I said I didn't like the way he' got things done
The singer is criticizing the sun for allowing the rain to keep falling on him.

Sleepin' on the job
The singer thinks the sun is not doing his job properly because he is allowing the rain to fall on him.

Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
The raindrops are continuing to fall on the artist's head.

But there's one thing i know
Despite his frustration, the artist knows one thing for sure.

The blues he sends to meet me won't defeat me
The artist knows that the things that make him sad won't defeat him.

It won't be long 'till happiness steps up to greet me
The singer is optimistic that he will soon feel happy again.

Raindrops keep falling on my head
The rain is still falling on the artist's head.

But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
The singer is not going to cry, even though the rain is making him unhappy.

Crying's not for me
The singer doesn't like to cry.

'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
The singer knows that complaining about the rain won't make it go away.

Because I'm free
The artist feels free because he knows he can't change the rain, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

Nothing's worrying me.
The artist is not worried about anything, including the rain.
