Lyrics

[Verse 1] Shades of white and blue and yellow Hues of red which could make a man mellow When up is down and down is too low (Up is down and down is too low) And high is not; now, where can I go? (High is not, where can I go?) [Chorus] Lookin' for my rainbow (Lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow [Verse 2] We all come from time and space (We all come from time and space) In vain we search from place to place (Searchin' from place to place) Feelin' pain and knowin' sorrow (Feelin' pain and knowin' sorrow) And never thinkin' about tomorrow (Never thinkin' about tomorrow) [Chorus] Lookin' for my rainbow (Lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Whoa, I'm lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow [Verse 3] There's a way that some men give (There's a way that some men give) Give what they can give if when they give (Well, well, when they give) Ain't no time for feelin' down (Ain't no time for feelin' down) Lord have mercy on all around (Lord have mercy on all around) [Chorus] Lookin' for my rainbow (Hey, hey, I'm lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Whoa, I'm lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Oh yes, I am, yeah) [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Sometimes I hear the old whistle blow (Can't you hear that whistle blow?) See the rusted cans on the boxcar floor (Rusted cans on the boxcar floor) Shades of white and blue and yellow (Blue and yellow) Pass by me through the open door (Well, well, that open door) [Chorus] Lookin' for my rainbow (I'm lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (I'm lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Oh yes, I am) [Verse 5] Crystal lady, my one friend (Well, you're my friend) And the red on white tells her where I've been (Now, you know just where I've been, now) And if this life should end for me (When this life should end for me) I know my life has no guarantee (Know my life got no guarantee) [Chorus] 'Cause I'm lookin' for my rainbow (Whoa, lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (I'm lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Whoa, lookin' for my rainbow) Lookin' for my rainbow (Yes, I'm lookin' for my rainbow) [Outro] Lookin' for my rainbow (yeah, yeah)
