Rainbow Stew

Merle Haggard


There's a big brown cloud in the city,
And the country side a scene.
The price of life is to high to give up 
It's rather come down again.
When world wide war's is over and done 
And the dream of peace comes true.
We'll all be drinking that free bubble up 
And eat that rainbow stew.

When they'll found out how to burn water
And the gasoline car is gone 
When an airplane flies without any fuel
And the sunlight heats our home
One of these days when the air clears up 
And the sun comes shining through 
We'll all be drinking that free bubble up 
And eat that rainbow stew.

Eat that rainbow stew in a silver spoon 
Underneath that sky are blue 
We'll all be drinking that free bubble up 
And eat that rainbow stew.

You don't have to get high to get happy
Just think about what's in store
When people start doing what they odd to be doing
And they wont be booing no more 
When a president goes through the white house door  
Does what he says he'll do 
We'll all be drinking that free bubble up 
And eat that rainbow stew

Eat that rainbow stew in a silver spoon 
Underneath that sky are blue 
We'll all be drinking that free bubble up 
And eat that rainbow stew
