It was a lucky April shower 
It was the most convenient door 
I found a million dollar baby 
In a five an' ten cent store! 
  
The rain continued for an' hour 
I hung around for three or four 
Around a million dollar baby 
In a five an' ten cent store! 
  
She was sellin' china 
an' when she made those eyes 
I kept buyin' china 
until the crowd got wise! 
  
Incidentally . . . 
  
If you should run into a shower 
just step inside my cottage door 
an' meet the million dollar baby 
from a five an' ten cent store! 
  
< instrumental repeat of verse > 
  
She was sellin' china 
an' when she made those eyes 
I kept buyin' china 
until the crowd got wise! 
  
Incidentally . . . 
  
If you should run into a shower 
just step inside my cottage door 
an' meet the million dollar baby  
the lady that I adore  
she's the million dollar baby 
from the five . . . 
the five an' ten cent store!
