Pennies From Heaven Lyrics - Jazz In Paris: Le Dernier Message De Lester Young - Lester Young

Oh every time it rains 

It rains pennies from heaven 

Don't you know each cloud contains 

Pennies from heaven 

You'll find your fortune 

Fallin' all over town 

Be sure that your umbrella is upside down 

Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers 

It you want the things you love 

You must have showers 

So when you hear it thunder 

Don't run under a tree 

There'll be pennies from heaven 

For you and me 

The world was bright when you loved me 

Sweet was the touch of your lips 

The world went dark when you left me 

And then there came a total eclipse 

Nobody knows how cruel fate can be 

How close together love and hate can be 

Goodbye, just clean the slate for me 

That's life I guess
