Lightfoot uses the moniker “Rainy Day People” to refer to friends who support the narrator during hard times. These people are characterized as kind and honest, listening well and explaining they’ve been there too.
[Verse 1]
Rainy day people always seem to know when it's time to call
Rainy day people don't talk, they just listen till they've heard it all
Rainy day lovers don't lie when they tell you they've been down like you
Rainy day people don't mind if you cry on a tear or two
[Verse 2]
If you get lonely, all you really need is that rainy day love
Rainy day people all know there's no sorrow they can't rise above
Rainy day lovers don't love any others, that would not be kind
Rainy day people all know how it hangs on your peace of mind
[Verse 3]
Rainy day lovers don't lie when they tell you they've been down there, too
Rainy day people don't mind if you cry on a tear or two
[Verse 4]
Rainy day people always seem to know when you're feeling blue
High stepping strutters who land in the gutter sometime need one, too
Take it or leave it or try to believe it, if you've been down too long
Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside, they just pass it on
Rainy day lovers don't hide love inside, they just pass it on
Rainy Day People was written by Gordon Lightfoot.
Rainy Day People was produced by Lenny Waronker.
