It’s So Fine

(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
(Da rain, da rain)

It’s so fine
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
A key Spring sign
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
foul weather helps grow the fare
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
even fibers that we can wear.
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
I don’t know how it always does it
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
But it always grows the green
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
It’s the boon of all gardeners
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
working magic on the scene.
(Da-rain, da rain)

It falls soft to the ground,
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
soaking in all around.
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
Makes me wonder if I
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
could grow rhubarb for a pie.
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
I know Mother Nature’s sly
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
Rain can’t shy away forever
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
After which the sun will shine
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
For some fine growing weather.
(Da-rain, da rain)

It’s so fine
(Oh yeah)
finer than wine
(Oh yeah)
Sooner or later
(Oh yeah)
I hope it’s not later
(Oh yeah)
Bring on the stormy weather
(Oh yeah)
The sooner the better
(Oh yeah)
I just can’t wait, I just can’t wait
To see that rhubarb rise.

When April is here,
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
before all my seeds have been sewn
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
I’ll do everything that I should
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
Everything until they are grown
(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
For they’re so fine
(So fine) so fine
(So fine) flowers fine
(So fine) so fine
(So fine) veggies fine

[Fades]

(So fine) oh yeah
(They’re so fine) They’re so fine
(So fine) uh-huh
(They’re so fine)
Rain’s so fine…..

(Da-rain, da rain, da rain)
(Da-rain, da rain)
