Lyrics Canned Heat – Lookin’ For My Rainbow
Text:
Shades of white and blue and yellow
And hues of red which could make a man mellow
When up is down and down’s too low
(Up is down and down’s too low)
(High is not where can I go)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(Lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(Lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
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)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(Lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(I’m lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
There’s a way that some men give
(There’s a way that some men give)
Givin’ what they can, give when they give
(When when when they give)
Ain’t no time for feelin’ down
(Ain’t no time for feelin’ down)
(Lord have mercy on all around)
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)
Sometimes I hear the old whistle blowing
(Can’t you hear that whistle blowing?)
See the rusted cans on the boxcar floor
(Rusted cans on the box car floor)
Shades of white, and blue, and yellow
(Blue and yellow)
Without me through the open door
(Well, well, an open door)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(I’m lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(Lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(Oh yes I am)
Crystal lady, you’re my one friend
(Friend, you’re my friend)
And the red on white tells her where I’ve been
(Now you know just where I’ve been)
And if this life shouting for me
(When this life shouting for me)
I know my life’s got no guarantee
(Know my life’s got no guarantee)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(I’m 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
(Lookin’ for my rainbow)
Lookin’ for my rainbow
(Lookin’ for my rainbow)
I’m lookin’ for my rainbow
(Yes, yes…)
