Rainbow Love

Thanks to Nancy Woitynek, who posted this song on the WAGGGS-L Mailing List!

Chorus:

We're a rainbow made of children,

We're an army singing a song.

There's no weapon that can stop us,

Rainbow love is much too strong.

I was raised in Mississippi,

Saying "Yes, Sir" to all the men.

But I found it got me nowhere,

So I'll never say it again.

I was taught that black was evil,

I was taught that white was good;

But when you become a rainbow,

All the colors are understood.

It's the winning that's important,

Not the way the game is played.

That's the way some folks see it,

But that's not how peace is made.

Now the rainbow's all kinds of people,

Walking together hand in hand.

At the end of the rainbow,

There'll be peace throughout the land.

Sha na na na, sha na na na,

Sha na na na, sha na na na,

Sha na na na, sha na na na,

Rainbow love is much too strong.

Well, my grandma, she was a princess,

Well, my grandpa, he was a chief.

Thanks to those of our good nation,

Both my folks are on relief.
