Kris Kristofferson - Rainbow Road lyrics

I was born a dirt poor man All my life i've had hard working hands But i sang my song as i carried my load Cause i had a dream about rainbow Rainbow road Then one day a man came along Heard me playing and singing my songs He bought me clothes and paid up every debt i owed Sent me on my way down rainbow Rainbow road Then one night a man with a knife Pushed me till i had to take his life Fast as falling all my friends were gone That old judge traded me a sentence for a song Now i'm living with this ball and chain I had to wear a number before they ever heard my name And like the dream i'm growing old But we still sing about rainbow Rainbow road Tag: Rainbow road, rainbow road Rainbow road, rainbow road Rainbow road, rainbow road
