Don't Rain On My Parade Lyrics - Singles - Bobby Darin

Hey world, here I am 

Don't tell me not to fly, I've simply got to 

If someone takes a spill 

It's me and not you 

Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade 

Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter 

Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter 

Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade 

I'm gonna march my band out, I'll beat my drum 

And if I'm fanned out your turn at bat sir 

Hey, at least I didn't fake it 

Hat sir? So what I didn't make it 

But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection 

Or freckle on the nose of life's complexion 

The cinder or the shin the apple of it's eye 

I gotta fly once, I gotta try once 

Only can die once, right sir? 

Ohh, love is juicy, juicy and you see 

I've got to have my bite sir 

So get ready for me love 'cause I'm a comer 

I've simply got to march my heart's a drummer 

Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade 

I gotta fly once, I gotta try once 

Only can die once, right sir? 

Ohh, love is juicy, juicy and you see 

I've got to have my bite sir 

Get ready for me love 'cause I'm a comin' 

I've simply got to march my heart's a drummin' 

Nobody, I said nobody 

Nobody had better rain on my parade
