Before the storm
The sky turns gray
The clouds roll in
The sun tucks away
During the storm
The strong wind blows
The sky is wild
The rainwater flows
After the storm
The clouds say “adieu”
The sun peeks back out
The sky turns to blue
When rain comes down
It makes the sound
Of tons of little drums
A-pit-a-pat-
A-pit-a-pat
A-rat-a-tat-
Tat-tum
Woosh, whish–
The wind comes in
Swoosh, swish-
It blows again
A-pit-a-pat-
A-pit-a-pat
A-rat-a-tat-
Tat-tum
Ka-boom, smash-
What’s that I hear?
Crish, crash-
A storm is near!
When rain comes down
It makes the sound
A-rat-a-tat-
Tat-tum
