DARK AND STORMY WEATHER

    Dark and stormy weather
    It still inclines to rain
    The clouds hang over Center*
    My love's gone away on a train

We met, loved, and parted
I thought the world of you
You left me brokenhearted
To me you proved untrue

    [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

I'm leaving old Virginia
There's nothing here for me
I know you love another
In my grave I'd rather be

    Dark and stormy weather
    It still inclines to rain
    The clouds hang over Center*
    My love's gone away on a train

      [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

You told me that you loved me
I believed just what you said
But now you love another
I wish that I were dead

    Dark and stormy weather
    It still inclines to rain
    The clouds hang over Center*
    My love's gone away on a train
