 I went walkin' down by the river

 Feeling very sad inside

 When all at once I saw in the sky

 The little white cloud that cried

 

 He told me he was very lonesome

 And no one cared if he lived or died

 And said sometimes the thunder and lightning

 Make all little clouds hide

 

 He said "Have faith in all kinds of weather"

 "For the sun will always shine"

 "Do your best and always remember"

 "The dark clouds pass with time"

 

 He asked if I'd tell all my world

 Just how hard those little clouds try

 That's how I know I'll always remember

 The little white cloud that sat right down and cried

 (The little white cloud that cried)
