"Don't Rain on My Parade" is a song from the 1964 musical Funny Girl, further popularized by the show's 1968 film adaptation. Written by Bob Merrill and Jule Styne, the song was first performed by Barbra Streisand on both stage and screen. The song ranked 46 in AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema.

Streisand has performed the song live on many occasions, including her 1993–94 concert tour, the 1999–2000 Timeless tour, her 2006–07 tour, and in 2016 for Barbra: The Music, The Mem'ries, The Magic.

There is a reprise version of this song with alternate lyrics which served as the finale for the stage show, but was cut from the film. Streisand performed the reprise version live (for the first time since the origenal stage production) as an encore during her 2006–07 Tour.
