Sing Me A Rainbow Lyrics - Dr. Hook

(Shel Silverstein) 

Josie it's been a long hard day 

Down the road to where it's at I must have lost my way 

When I got there they said I was too late 

Now you're the only one can get me straight 

So won't you sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song 

Just tonight make it right 'cause it's been wrong for oh so long 

There's lots of shades of darkness, Josie deep inside a man 

So sing me a rainbow if you can 

The train I went to meet had come and gone 

Seems like I spend all my time gettin' off and gettin' on 

I sold my mind and gave my dreams away 

And tomorrow I'll start lookin' 'round for yesterday 

But 'til then sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song 

Just tonight make it right 'cause it's been wrong for oh so long 

There's lots of kinds of hunger Josie you don't understand 

So sing me a rainbow if you can 

If you can, if you can 

Sing me a rainbow if you can
