(Jerry McBee - Dan Lomax - Billy Large)

It was a rainy day in Richmond
When I found out what she had done
She walked right out of my life
In her hour of fun.

They thought I'd gone to Baltimore
And never suspected a thing
They didn't know I was following them
Right down to their shame.

A shower of tears fell from my eyes
Hurtin' every one
I couldn't believe what I had seen
And what my woman had done.

Oh, I never thought my baby
Could ever give me room for doubt
It was a rainy day in Richmond
The day that I found out.

I followed close behind them
To the love nest they had found
Then the pain came down so hard
I stopped and turned around.

I'd seen enough to tell me
There wasn't any doubt
It was a rainy day in Richmond
The day that I found out.

Oh, rainy day in Richmond
The day that I found out...
