Trickle Trickle - Manhattan Transfer, Take 6

Trickle, Trickle, Splash, Splash

Tell me how long will this rain last

The rain keeps droppin', there ain’t no stoppin'

Tell me how long will this rain last

Trickle, Trickle, Slop, Slop

Just got to see my sweet gum drop

She’s there waitin' and I’m hesitatin'

Tell me just when this rain will stop

Ronnie, dig my clothes here boy

One button low

Well, you know I’m sharp, as a tack

Say can you lend me your Cadillac

Gotta go, gotta go to a party — yeah

Please lend me your short

Well if I can’t take it

You know I can’t make it

I won’t see my baby no more

Trickle, Trickle, Splash, Splash

Tell me how long will this rain last

The rain keeps droppin', there ain’t no stoppin'

Tell me how long will this rain last

Ronnie, she’s sweet, she’s fine yeh boy

And I love her so

Well if I don’t make the party

Man — she sure to blow

Gotta go, gotta go to the party — yeh

Please lend me your short

Well if I can’t take it, you know I can’t make it

I won’t see my baby no more

Trickle, Trickle, Splash, Splash

Tell me how long will this rain last

The rain keeps droppin', there ain’t no stoppin'

Tell me how long will this rain last

Trickle, Trickle, Slop, Slop

Just got to see my sweet gum drop

She’s there waitin' and I’m hesitatin'

Tell me how long will this rain last

Tell me how long will it last
