Rainy Day in Richmond

(Jerry McBee - Dan Lomax - Billy Large)



It was a rainy day in Richmond

When I found out what she had done

She walked right out of my life

In her hour of fun.



They thought I'd gone to Baltimore

And never suspected a thing

They didn't know I was following them

Right down to their shame.



A shower of tears fell from my eyes

Hurtin' every one

I couldn't believe what I had seen

And what my woman had done.



Oh, I never thought my baby

Could ever give me room for doubt

It was a rainy day in Richmond

The day that I found out.



I followed close behind them

To the love nest they had found

Then the pain came down so hard

I stopped and turned around.



I'd seen enough to tell me

There wasn't any doubt

It was a rainy day in Richmond

The day that I found out.



Oh, rainy day in Richmond

The day that I found out...
