INTRO:
Drip, drip..drippity drop..drip, drip..

#1.
The roof is leaking and the rain's falling
on my head..(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
Well, the roof is leaking and the rain's falling
on my head..(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
I cried so hard, teardrops on my bed..
(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
#2.
Well, she packed up her clothes and she moved out
on the midnight train..(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
Well, she packed up her clothes and she moved out
on the midnight train..(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
You know, this empty room is driving me insane..
(flip, flip..flippity flop.)
#3.
Well, I'm sitting here drinking..thinking what I'm
gonna do..(sip, sip, slippity slop.)
Well, I'm sitting here drinking..thinking what I'm
gonna do..(sip, sip, slippity slop.)
You know the roof is leaking and the rain is falling
through..(drip, drip, drippity drop.)

#4.
Well, I ran into my buddy..he gave me a tip, tip, tip.
He said your woman's gone and left..I said, I'm hip,
hip, hip.
I said, just mind your own affairs and button your lip,
lip, lip.
I don't need you to tell me she gave me the slip, slip,
slip.
#5.
The roof is leaking and the rain's falling
on my head..(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
Well, the roof is leaking and the rain's falling
on my head..(drip, drip..drippity drop.)
I cried so hard, teardrops on my bed..(drip, drip..drippity
drop.)
