Rainbow Road - Live From Jills Veranda / 2015

I was born a poor, poor man
All my life I had hardworkin' hands
But I sing a song as I carry my load
'Cuz I had a dream about Rainbow
Rainbow road

Then one day, a man came along
He heard me playing and singing my song
He bought me clothes and paid everything I owed
Sent me on my way down Rainbow
Rainbow road

Then one night, a man with a knife
Forced me to take his life
Though I pleeded with him, so desperetly
The judge showed no mercy while he put his sentence on me

So now as I pull this ball and chain
Wearing this number, for my name
(and you know) Dreams like me they all grow old
But I still dream about that rainbow
That rainbow road

Well I was born
A poor, poor woman
And all my life I had hardworking hands
But dreams like me, has all grown old
But I still dream about that rainbow
Rainbow road (rainbow road)
I still dream about that rainbow road
...
I still dream about it, and so should you
