Back a long long time ago
A million years BC
All the best things in this life
Were absolutely free
But no one appreciated
A sky that was always blue
And no one anticipated
A moon that was always new

So it was planned that they would vanish now and then
And you must pay before you get them back again
That's what storms were made for
And you shouldn't be afraid for

Every time it rains it rains
Pennies from heaven
Don't you know each cloud contains
Pennies from heaven

You'll find your fortune falling all over town
Make sure that your umbrella is upside down

Will you trade it for a package of sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love, well 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 for me

Pennies from heaven
Pennies from heaven

You'll find your fortune falling all over town
Be sure that your umbrella is upside down

Won't ya trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love, child 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 for me

Pennies from heaven
