Joan Baez - Rainbow Road Lyrics
I was born a poor poor manAll my life I had hard workin' handsBut I sang a song as I carried my loadCuz I had a dream about rainbow, rainbow roadThen one day my chance came alongA man heard me singin' and playing these old songsHe bought me fine clothes, paid the money I owedStarted me on my way down rainbow, rainbow roadThen one night a man wiht a knifePushed me till I had to take his lifeFast as fallin' all my friends were goneThat old judge traded me a sentence for a songJust livin' with that ball 'n chainHad to wear a number 'for they'd ever call my nameLike a dream I'm growing oldBut we still sing about rainbow, rainbow read
