“I’m No Stranger to the Rain” was a #1 hit for Keith Whitley. It just basically says that he has been through everything and survived. In retrospect, this is both sad and ironic.
In Memory of Keith Whitley
July 1, 1955 -- May 9, 1989
[Verse 1]
I'm no stranger to the rain
I'm a friend of thunder
Friend, is it any wonder lightnin' strikes me
I've fought with the devil
Got down on his level
But I never gave in, so he gave up on me
[Verse 2]
I'm no stranger to the rain
I can spot bad weather
And I'm good at finding shelter in a downpour
I've been sacrificed by brothers
Crucified by lovers
But through it all I withstood the pain
I'm no stranger to the rain
[Bridge]
But when I get that foggy feelin'
When I'm a feelin' down
If I don't keep my head up, I may drown
But it's hard to keep believing
I'll even come out even
While the rain beats your hope in the ground
And tonight it's really comin' down
[Verse 3]
I'm no stranger to the rain
But there'll always be tomorrow
And I'll beg, steal, or borrow a little sunshine
And I'll put this cloud behind me
That's how the Man designed me
To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane
I'm no stranger to the rain
Oh no, I'm no stranger to the rain
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
I'm no stranger to the rain
I'm a friend of thunder
Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me
But I'll put this cloud behind me
That's how the Man designed me
Ride the wind and dance in a hurricane
I'm no stranger to the rain, oh no
I'm no stranger to the rain
