ELO, Lyrics:
Standin' in the rain.

(Concerto for a rainy day...)
(Rain...)

I'm standing in the rain
I'm waiting all alone
I'm so tired
I wanna go home.

I'm standing in the rain
Getting soaking wet
I'm doing my best
But what do I get?

I'm standing in the rain
Can't seem to get along
People rushing by
Wish they could hear my song.

I'm standing in the rain
It's teeming down on me
Cats & dogs
I wanna be free.

I'm standing in the rain
Doing my thing
I'm trying my best
What does it bring?
I'm standing in the rain
Getting soaking wet
I'm doing my best
But what does it get?

The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain
I tried to be so good this time
But here I am under the sky.

The good intentions and the pain
Lay drowned now in the pouring rain.

Jeff Lynne

From the 1977 LP, Out Of The Blue.

Facts:
The introduction of "Standin' In The Rain" from Out of the Blue features a synthesized Vocoder voice emulating thunder that says "Concerto for a Rainy Day". This is because obstensibly the intro to Standin' In The Rain is not only the intro to the song, but the third side of the album, which is the aforementioned Concerto For A Rainy Day.
