Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head [From Butch Cassidy And The Sundance
Andy Williams · Other Songs - Andy Williams
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Nothin' seems to fit
Those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
So I just did me some talkin' to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way he got things done
Sleepin' on the job, oh
Raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me, won't defeat me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Crying's not for me, oh
I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me
It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red
Crying's not for me, oh
I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin'
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me
Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head [From Butch Cassidy And The Sundance
Andy Williams' rendition of 'Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head' stands as a definitive example of his mastery of the easy-listening and pop standards genres. While the song is most famously associated with the Western film 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,' Williams' version captures a distinctively smooth, romantic atmosphere that diverges from the original's desert setting. His delivery, characterized by a warm, baritone voice and intricate vocal runs, transformed the track into a timeless ballad. Released on his extensive discography, the recording exemplifies the mid-to-late 20th-century style of instrumental accompaniment and melodic sophistication that defined his career. The song remains a staple of his catalog, celebrated for its enduring appeal and its ability to evoke a sense of calm and nostalgia through its lush musical arrangement.
