Rainbow Man

歌詞

I was born in Alabama but I never knew my Momma She gave me away at three months old Some folks in Mississippi took me in an' kept me An' treated me just like I was their own A Holiness preacher man's daughter And a hard-working sharecropper father An' my Momma was Apache my real Daddy? Hell don't ask me Momma says she don't remember him An' I'm sure somewhere in my history I've got some slave blood in me An' some folks think that I look Mexican I never really fit in any place 'Cause there's always a part of me to hate I'm the rainbow man That's who I am I'm a little white an' black an' red and tanned I've got all these different colors in my skin I'm the rainbow man Well, I know you may doubt it but if you stop an' think about it There's one common thing that we've all got People from all countries come here because they're hungry For what's cookin' in America's meltin' pot We're all different but the same Red's the only color in our veins And I'm the rainbow man Livin' in a rainbow land I'm white an' black an' yellow an' brown an' red and tanned And I'm so proud of all the colors that I am I'm the rainbow man All these colors make me American I'm the rainbow man
