Verse 1

  The scene was a small roadside cafe

  The waitress was sweeping the floor

Two truck drivers drinking their coffee

  And two Okie kids by the door

Verse 2

"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

Chorus

  And the daylight grew heavy with thunder

  With the smell of the rains on the wind

  Ain't it just like a human

  Here comes that rainbow again

Verse 3

(A tone higher)

  One truck driver 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

Verse 4

(Idem)

  In silence they finished their coffee

  And got up and nodded goodbye

  She called,"Hey you left too much money"

  "So what's it to you?" they replied

Chorus bis

(Idem)

  And the daylight was heavy with thunder

  With the smell of the rains on the wind

  Ain't it just like a human

  Here comes that rainbow again

  Ain't it just like a human

  Here comes that rainbow again
