Rainbow Road
I was born a dirt poor manAll my life I've had hard working handsBut I sang my song as I carried my load'Cause I had a dream about rainbowRainbow roadThen one day a man came alongHeard me playing and singing my songsHe bought me clothes and paid up every debt I owedSent me on my way down rainbowRainbow roadThen one night a man with a knifePushed me till I had to take his lifeFast as falling all my friends were goneThat old judge traded me a sentence for a songNow I'm living with this ball and chainI had to wear a number before they ever heard my nameAnd like the dream I'm growing oldBut we still sing about rainbowRainbow roadRainbow road, Rainbow roadRainbow road, Rainbow roadRainbow road, Rainbow road Aus Songtexte Mania
