The Rain
Oran Juice Jones Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw you (and him, and him) walking in the rain
You were holding hands and I'll never be the same

Tossing and turning another sleepless night
The rain crashes against my window pane
Jumped into my car--didn't drive too far
That moment I knew I would never be the same
Cause I saw you (and him, and him) walking in the rain
You were holding hands and I'll never be the same

Now here you are begging to me
To give our love another try
Girl I love you and I always will
But darling right now I've got to say goodbye

Cause I saw you (and him, and him) walking in the rain
You were holding hands and I'll never be the same

I saw you (and him) walking in the rain
You were holding hands and I'll never be the same

Hey, hey, baby, how you doin', come on in here
Got some hot chocolate on the stove waitin' for ya
Listen, first things first, let me hang up that coat
Yeah, 'n' how's your day today, did ya miss me?
Oh, you did, yeah, I missed you, too
I missed you so much I followed you today
That's right
Now close your mouth
Cause you cold busted
That's right, now sit down here
Sit down here
So upset with you I don't know what to do
'n' my first impulse was to run up on you
And do a Rambo
Whip out the jammy and flat-blast both of you
But I ain't wanna mess up this thirty-seve hundred dollar lynx coat
So instead, I chilled
That's right, chilled, then I went to the bank
Took out every dime
And then I went and canceled all those credit cards
Yeah
All your charge accounts
Yeah
I stuck you up for every piece of jewelry I ever bought you
Yeah
That's right, everything
Everything
Did fool out with me
Naw, don't go, you ever go, don't go looking in that closet
Cause you ain't got nothing in there
Everything you came here with--

Is packe dup and waiting for you in the guest room
That's right, what was you thinking about, huh?
What were you tryin' to prove, huh?
You's with the Juice
'n' I gave you silk suits, Gucci handbags, blue diamonds
I gave you things you couldn't even pronounce
Now I can't give you nothin' but advice
Cause you're still young
That's right, you're still young
I hope you learn a valuable lesson from all this
You know?
Gonna find someone like me one of these days
Until then, know what you gotta do?
You gotta get on outta here with that
Alley-cat-coat wearin'
Hush-puppy-shoe-wearing'
Crumb cake I saw you with
Cause you dismissed
That's right, silly rabbit
Tricks are made for kids, don't you know that?
You without me: like cornflake without the milk
It's my world--you just a squirrel, tryin' to get a nut
Now get on outta here




Ah!
Don't touch that coat!

Overall Meaning

Oran Juice Jonesโ€™ song โ€œThe Rainโ€ is a story of love, infidelity, and ultimate betrayal. The singer begins by narrating a sleepless night, listening to the rain against his window while tormented by the image of his girlfriend walking in the rain, holding hands with another man. The man is deeply impacted by this betrayal and makes the decision to end his relationship with his girlfriend. In addition to the pain of seeing his girlfriend with another man, he is also upset that she is now begging him for a second chance.


The lyrics take a dramatic turn towards the end when the man confronts his girlfriend with evidence of her infidelity. He claims to have followed her and caught her in the act. He then calmly informs her that he has taken all of her possessions and cancelled her credit cards, leaving her with nothing. He believes that she has been ungrateful for all of the luxuries and possessions he has provided for her. He ends the conversation by telling her to leave and never come back.


โ€œThe Rainโ€ is a powerful story that touches on themes of betrayal, revenge, and the importance of being grateful for what you have. The singer is deeply hurt by his girlfriend's actions, but he also recognizes that he has provided her with a lavish lifestyle that she is not entitled to.

I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands

Tossing and turning, another sleepless night
The rain crashes against my window pane
Jumped into my car, didn't drive too far
That moment I knew

I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same
I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same
Now here you are begging to me
To give our love another try
Girl I love you and I always will
But darling right now I've got to say goodbye
'Cause I saw you (and him)
Walking in the rain
You were holding hands
And I'll never be the same

I know that you're talking about the video, but if you are the least bit interested, Oran Juice Jones is a guest on my live stream every other Thursday. He'll be on tonight for NYE. I'm no Tipsy Bartender, but I'm entertaining. I'd love to have you co-host with him some time in 2021.
