Lines: 14 OK folks, just to set the record straight again, Imus did NOT write "Well I Don't Care if it Rains.....". It was written by one Al Higgins from New Orleans in the early 50s. The name of the song is "Plastic Jesus". I have a copy from an old songbook in front of me as I write. There were 6 original verses with many more added at various times, mostly scatalogical in nature. Should I get over my current bout of ennui, I will post the original 6 verses. The song was popular back when I was in college. T. C. Wheeler
