TEACHER DEMO
This classic song from 1969 originally made its appearance in the movie "Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid" where it won an Academy Award for Best Original Song. B.J. Thomas did the original recording which I am partial to, but many other vocal artists have recorded it since then. Billboard Magazine ranked this song at number 15 in its Top 50 Movie Songs of All Time in 2014, and it was also inducted into the 2014 Grammy Hall of Fame. This song has been used in many movies and TV shows including: Spy Hard, Spiderman 2, The In-Laws, Forrest Gump, The Simpsons, and many others.
The lyrics were composed by Hal David and the music by Burt Bacharach, who has won many awards through the years for his creative talent. This masterful arrangement for piano is by Mark Hayes. Mark Hayes is one of my favorite arrangers of all time. He specializes in Sacred music, but has also done a wonderful collection of "Film Classics" for advanced piano in the Alfred's Popular Performer Series. --Norma

LYRICS
Raindrops are falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet
Are too big for his bed
Nothing seems to fit
Those raindrops
Are falling on my head
They keep falling.
So I just did me some
Talking to the sun
And I said I didn't like the way
He got things done
Sleeping on the job
Those raindrops
Are falling on my head
They keep fallin'
But there's one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won't defeat me, it won't be long
Till happiness
Steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes
Will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me 'cause,
I'm never gonna stop the rain
By complaining,
Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me
It won't be long
Till happiness
Steps up to greet me
Raindrops keep falling on my head
But that doesn't mean my eyes
Will soon be turning red
Crying's not for me cause,
I'm never gonna stop the rain
By complaining,
Because I'm free, 'cause nothing's worrying me
