"Songs About Rain" is a song written by Pat McLaughlin and Liz Rose, and recorded by American country music artist Gary Allan. It was released in November 2003 as the second single from his album See If I Care. The song peaked at number 12 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart and at number 71 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

In the song, the narrator describes how he is driving around in circles, having nothing to do but think about the one who left him. He notes that he heard she has just married another man, and it has affected him more than he thought it would. The radio's continual playing of "songs about rain" is not helping the situation.

David Jeffries of Allmusic called the song "slow" and "epic" and stated that the song is further proof Allan is a "master balladeer". Michael Paoletta, of Billboard magazine also reviewed the song favorably saying that "Allan delivers an aching, poignant vocal that wrings every drop of emotion from the lyric." He also says that the writers should "get brownie points for reminding listeners of those great tunes."

As the title suggests, the song mentions the titles of several songs that talk about rain. Among these songs are "Rainy Night in Georgia," "Kentucky Rain," "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain," "Early Morning Rain" and "Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling again."

The music video for the song was directed by Morgan Lawley, who directed Allan's three previous videos "Man of Me," "The One," and "Tough Little Boys."

"Songs About Rain" debuted at number 51 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of November 22, 2003.
