I Hope It Rains
Jana Kramer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Funny, thought you needed your space just five nights ago
I bet you'll take her to our favorite spot,
Blanket down, on the ground, and chicken from momma's stove,
And when you pull her in close
I hope it rains on you,
Maybe a little bit of lightning too
Messin' up your whole day
Hey hey, and I hope it rains
Don't get me wrong, I hope she's really the one
And if it's love you know I wish you the best
You'll probably have yourself an outside wedding,
With violins, all our friends, and her in her pretty white dress
And right before that first kiss
I hope it rains on you,
Maybe a little bit of lightning too
And I hope it comes a flood, lots of mud,
Messin' up your whole day
Hey hey, and I hope it rains,
And I hope it rains
I hope it rains,
Hope it pours,
I hope she's in heels, and some little white shorts
You can't find the keys to unlock the doors
And I hope it rains on you,
Maybe a little bit of lightning too
And I hope it comes a flood, lots of mud,
Messin' up your whole day
Hey hey, and I hope it rains,
And I hope it rains
And I hope it rains
In Jana Kramer's song "I Hope It Rains," the singer expresses her feelings towards her ex-partner moving on so quickly. The song's opening verses convey her surprise and disappointment as she finds out her former partner is already out on a date, possibly to their favorite place where they used to sit under the stars and share food cooked by their mothers. The bridge serves as a disclaimer to the song's main theme, with the singer admitting that she honestly wishes the best for her ex-partner in his new love life. The third verse provides humorous and ironic twists to the song's main theme, with the singer sincerely wishing for slight calamities to befall her ex-partner's date, with the "I hope it rains" chorus becoming more intense and humorous.
Jana Kramer's "I Hope It Rains" uses rain as a metaphor for disappointment, heartbreak, and adversity, cunningly playing with the different contexts the word "rain" could have, making it both a positive and negative figure of speech. The song's upbeat melody complements the song's humorous tone, making it a refreshing take on country music's usual heartbreak and lamentation tropes. By involving the entire audience in the humorous chorus hook, Jana Kramer cleverly turns the song's humor into an audience sing-along bonding experience.

It definitely rained and thundered in my wedding! I told my hubby it was all the tears of his exes and all the hurt and pain he caused them. Thank God, God gives us a second chance and been married 14 years now much longer together than any of his past relationships because we both have grown and matured!!
