It is also featured on the official playlists "Music from Fallout" (Amazon) and "Fallout Radio" (Spotify) promoting the series.[2]

Lyrics[]

Bill Kenny:
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much is falling in mine.

Into each heart some tears must fall,
But some day the sun will shine.

Some folks can lose
The blues in their hearts,

But when I think of you,
Another shower starts.

Into each life some rain must fall,
But too much is falling in mine.

Ella Fitzgerald:
Into each life some rain must fall
But too much, too much is falling in mine.

Into each heart some tears must fall,
But some day the sun will shine.

Some folks can lose
The blues in their hearts,

But when I think of you,
Another shower starts.

Into each life some rain must fall,
But too much is falling in mine.

Hoppy Jones:
Into each and every life some rain has got to fall
But too much of that stuff has fallen into mine
And into each heart some tears gotta fall
But I know that someday that sun is bound to shine

Bill Kenny:
Some folks can lose
The blues in their hearts,

Ella Fitzgerald:
But when I think of you,
Another shower starts.

Both:
Into each life some rain must fall,
But too much is falling in mine.
