Multi-colored Lady Lyrics - Allman Brothers Band

Got on a bus in Memphis 

Destination Rome 

Georgia ain't no paradise 

But a place I just call home 

I sat next to a broken hearted bride 

She was cryin', tryin' so hard to hide 

Her selfish sorrow 

I tried to get her talkin' 

She didn't have much to say 

She asked me for a map to death row 

But I didn't know the way

She had lost a million in the game 

One look out the window 

At the pine trees and the rain 

It wasn't her day 

Multicolored lady 

You ain't like no rainbow I've ever seen 

Multicolored lady 

Angry red, passion blue 

But mostly shades of green 

Midnight came and brought more rain 

Nothing seemed to ease her pain 

The hours that we talked 

Seemed like minutes all in vane 

I watched 

As her tears kept runnin' wide 

Bye and bye and bye, way back after a while 

She started smilin'

Multicolored lady 

You ain't like no rainbow I've ever known 

Multicolored lady 

Come go with me, I'll take you to my home 

Oh, by the way, I'm bound for Rome
