When It Rains, It Really Pours (W.R. Emerson) - You know what it takes, / You've got it, baby. / You are the only one I chose. / Don't leave me here with all these heartaches, / Only you and heaven knows / About my troubles troubles troubles. / When it rains, it really pours... / You shouldn't have took away my loving / You know you thrill me from head to toe. / I got a feeling for you baby / And you're the only one who knows / About my troubles, troubles, troubles. / When it rains, it really pours... / You know what you did to make me love you / You really opened up my nose. / You got what you wanted, now you left me. / That's the way the story goes. / Well, I got troubles, troubles, troubles. / When it rains, it really pours.
