Hey, the roof is leaking and
The rain's falling on my head
It won't stop

The roof is leaking and
The rain's falling on my head
I need a mop

I cried so hard
Teardrops on my head
Drippity drop, yeah

She packed up her bags
And she moved out
On the midnight train
Got no brain

She packed up her bags
And she moved out
On the midnight train
Girl's insane

She took my heart
Tears rolling down my drain
Just like rain

My buddy come to see me
To give me a tip, tip, tip
I said, now listen here, friend
I tell you, I'm hip, hip, hip

Why don't you
Mind your own business
Shut your lip, lip, lip
I know when my girl
Give me the slip, slip, slip

I said the roof is leaking
Rain's falling on my head
Oh, yeah

I cried so hard
Teardrops on my head
Over the floor
That's what I said

Drip, drip, drippity drop
Hey, hey.......
Drip, drip, drippity drop
Hey, hey.......

Well, my buddy come to see me
To give me a tip, tip, tip
I said, now listen here, friend
I tell you, I'm hip, hip, hip

Why don't you
Mind your own business
Close your lip, lip, lip
I know when my girl
Give me the slip, slip, slip

I said the roof is leaking
Rain's falling on my head
Drippity drop

I cried so hard
Teardrops on my head
On the floor, on the rug
That's what I said
