Song Lyrics for Reefer In The Rain (1930)

Well the night got slow and the street got cold
I was hummin’ low tunes like the radio told
Had a little roll tucked snug in my coat
Said, Buddy, light up—keep this old soul afloat

And every time that cloudy breeze comes driftin’ my way
I swear the whole wide world sounds like a swing parade

Oh, puff it slow, puff it sweet
Let that reefer lift your feet
When the rain taps soft on the window pane
I’m singin’ high with my reefer in the rain

Took a stroll downtown past the corner stand
Where the old jazz boys play soft as sand
Shared a little smoke with a friend I knew
He said, Man, that tune’s hittin’ mighty true

So pass that spark and keep that swing in the air
Feels like every heartbeat’s tappin’ out a snare

Oh, puff it slow, puff it sweet
Let that reefer lift your feet
When the rain taps soft on the window pane
I’m singin’ high with my reefer in the rain

Ashtray glowin’, streetlamps low
Time moves easy when the breeze starts to flow
No hurry, no worry, no need to explain
Just a mellow little tune floatin’ through my brain

Puff it slow, puff it sweet
Let that reefer lift your feet
If the whole world’s hummin’ the same refrain
We’ll be swingin’ high with our reefer in the rain
