How Many Raindrops?

How many raindrops does it take

To turn a puddle into a lake

How many raindrops would I need

To grow a trickle into a stream

How many raindrops to grow a plant

How many make a drink for an ant, and

How many raindrops fall from a cloud

Do they all reach the ground

How many raindrops, raindrops fall

I could never count them all

Are some big and are some small

Do they reach you sooner if you’re really tall

How many raindrops to grow a flower

How many hit the Eiffel Tower

How many raindrops in a sun shower

That lasts half an hour

How many raindrops

How many raindrops

How many raindrops

How many raindrops fall

How many raindrops

Will make the worms come out

From underground to look around

Can they even count

Well maybe they’re just having fun

How many raindrops grow a mushroom on a log

How many fill up a birdbath

How many fill up a teacup

How many raindrops to a jump on when I jump in a puddle

There’s got to be a number
