I waited for you
You waited for me
That it seemed like, seemed like a mighty long time


Baby I had to have you
Oh, I had to have you

Come rain, rain or shine

It was a cold wind in August

Shivers up and down my spine
I was standin' in your garden
In the California pine


I was standing shivering
I've got the fever in the rain

But I can't come on back to see you
Again and again and again


I said I, I had to have you
Baby I had to have you
Come rain, come rain or shine


It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine

And I was standing in your garden

In the California pine

California pine

[instrumental]


It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine

I was standin' in your garden
In the California pine
In the California pine It was a cold wind in August

I was pushed on through September
Oh pushin' through September
In the rain

Pushin' through, pushin' through September
In the rain


Ooh
It was a cold wind in August
Shivers up and down my spine

I was standin' standin' in your garden
In the California pine
