Every time it rains, I think of you And that's the time I feel so blue When the rain starts to falling, my love comes tumbling down And it's raining teardrops from my eyes Well, if you see clouds here in my eyes It's just because you said good-bye Although the sun is shining, there's no summer skies Still it's raining teardrops from my eyes Remember the night you told me our love would always be I wouldn't be blue and lonely, well, if you'd come back to me Every single cloud would disappear I'd wear a smile if you were here So, baby, won't you hurry, because I need you so And it's raining teardrops from my eyes Remember the night you told me our love would always be I wouldn't be blue and lonely, well, if you'd come back to me Every single cloud would disappear I'd wear a smile if you were here So, baby, won't you hurry, 'cause I miss you so And it's raining teardrops from my eyes

A gravação foi feita em New York City em setembro de 1950 e lançada em outubro pelo selo Atlantic Records.
Foi o primeiro sucesso animado de Ruth Brown, transformando-a em figura importante no rhythm and blues.
O single ficou 11 semanas consecutivas no topo da Billboard R&B, embora não de forma contínua.
Foi o primeiro lançamento do Atlantic na nova faixa de 45 rpm, marcando a adoção desse formato.
O sucesso rendeu a Ruth Brown o apelido “Miss Rhythm”, e em poucos meses ela já era reconhecida como a rainha do R&B.
Em 2026, a canção foi selecionada pelo Library of Congress para inclusão no National Recording Registry por seu significado cultural, histórico ou estético.
