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.
