Rainbow Man

I was the firstborn son of a lonely soul at best

Was dreamin' I sank slow in the west

And like the drifted soul my daddy was, my shoes are wearing thin

Lord, the seeds, they're tangled in the wind

And like a breeze on a summer's day, I'll pass your way

I'll paint your pictures in the sky

But a rainbow man is all I am

And I'll fade away in the sunshine

Now don't try to tie me down if I'm around a while

May be hard to understand

"It's just my way", you say, "If I'm a fool, go, child"

I'm growing free now, yes, I'm going wild

And like a breeze on a summer's day, I'll pass your way

I'll paint your pictures in the sky

But a rainbow man is all I am

And I'll fade away in the sunshine

Oh yeah

And like a breeze on a summer's day, I'll pass your way

I'll paint your pictures in the sky

Just a rainbow man is all I am

And I'll fade away

And I won't be here tomorrow (I won't be here)

I won't be here tomorrow (I won't be)

Won't be here tomorrow or today

I'm a rainbow man

Yes, I am

I'm a rainbow man

Just a rainbow man
