Over the rainbow
in ruby red shoes
With a case of
unchaseable blues
Never knowin' quite
where you're goin' just
that you're going too far
To keep the heartache
from goin' too deep
Nothing but scarecrows
to show you the way
And a band full of pipers
to pay
Play around baby
right or wrong maybe
There's a yellow brick road
to follow
Find your way home
where you belong
Safe in a melody
Cause a singer
goes on singing
Like a song is
her best friend
And music
is the rainbow's end
Sing for your supper
bewitched with a smile
All the rates
and estates for awhile
You can make it through
One more old soft shoe
And a torch song or two
Won't you turn back the years
Cry all our tears
Chase all our fears away
Cause a singer
goes on singing
Like a song is
her best friend
And music
is the rainbow's end
Little girl so lost
What did you find
And what did it cost
Find your way home
Where you belong
Safe in a melody
Cause a singer
goes on singing
Like a song is
her best friend
And music
is the rainbow's end
Spotlight on
and down in one
Make the music climb
When the song is done
Then sing it one more time
For you and your best friend
The rainbow's end
