Here Comes That Rainbow Again
(written by Kris Kristofferson)


The scene was a small roadside cafe
The waitress was sweeping the floor
Two truck drivers drinking their coffee
And two Okie kids by the door

"How much are them candies ?" they asked her
"How much have you got ?" she replied
"We've only a penny between us"
"Them's two for a penny", she lied

And the daylight grew heavy with thunder
With the smells of the rains on the wind
Ain't it just like a human
Here comes that rainbow again

One truck driver called to the waitress
After the kids went outside
"Them candies ain't two for a penny"
"So what's it to you ?" she replied

In silence they finished their coffee
Got up and nodded goodbye
She called, "Hey you left too much money"
"So what's it to you ?" they replied

And the daylight was heavy with thunder
With the smell of the rains on the wind
Ain't it just like a human
Here comes that rainbow again
Ain't it just like a human
Here comes that rainbow again
