Josie it's been a long hard day
Down the road to where it's at
I must have lost my way
When I got there they said I was too late
Now you're the only one can get me straight
So won't you
sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song
Just tonight make it right
'cause it's been wrong for oh so long
There's lots of shades of darkness, Josie
deep inside a man
So sing me a rainbow if you can
The train I went to meet had come and gone
Seems like I spend all my time gettin' off and gettin' on
I sold my mind and gave my dreams away
And tomorrow I'll start lookin' 'round for yesterday
But 'til then
sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song
Just tonight make it right
'cause it's been wrong for oh so long
There's lots of kinds of hunger Josie
you don't understand
So sing me a rainbow if you can
If you can, if you can
Sing me a rainbow if you can

I asked my love to take a walk
To take a walk, just a little walk
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
And only say that you'll be mine
In no other's arms entwine
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
I held a knife against his breast
As into my arms he pressed
He cried, "My love, don't you murder me"
I'm not prepared for eternity
And only say that you'll be mine
In no other's arms entwine
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
I wandered home 'tween 12 and one
I cried, "My God, what have I done?"
I've killed the only man I love
He would not take me for his bride
And only say that you'll be mine
In no other's arms entwine
Down beside, where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
Down by the banks of the Ohio
