Where's That Rainbow?

(album: It's All Over But The Swingin' - 1957)

Where's that rainbow you hear about?
Where's that lining they cheer about?
Where's that love nest where love is king ever after?

Where's that blue room they sing about?
Where's that sunshine that they fling about?
I know morning will come, but pardon my laughter

In each scenario
You can depend on the end where the lovers agree
But I'm no Lothario
Why should I roam with a dome Vaselined as can be?

It is easy to see alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Be just dandy for everybody but me

Fortune never smiles
But in my case it just laughs right in my face
If I looked for a horseshoe, I suppose
It would bop me right in the nose
If I have ever had luck
It's bad luck for sure
And Pollyanna stuff too
Man, it's tough to endure

It is easy to see alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Be just dandy for everybody but me
Be just dandy for everybody but me
