The scene was a small roadside cafe |
|
The waitress was sweepin' the floor |
|
Two truck-drivers drinkin' 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 |
|
And the smell of the rain on the wind |
|
Ain't it just like a human |
|
Here comes that rainbow again |
|
One truckdriver 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 godbye |
|
She called, hey, you left too much money |
|
So what's it to you, they replied |
|
And the daylight grew heavy with thunder |
|
And the smell of the rain on the wind |
|
Ain't it just like a human |
|
Here comes that rainbow again |
