Got on a bus to Memphiiiss
Destination Rome...
Georgia aaaiin't no Paradiiisse, no place I could call hooooommmeee
I sat next to a broken hearted briiiiddeee
She was cryyyinn' tryyyyyin' so hard to hide
Her selfish sorrooooowwwww...

Multicolored Ladaaaaayyyy
You ain't like no rainbow I've ever seen...

Multicolored Laddaaayyy
Angry Red, Passion Blue, but mostlayyy

Shades of graaaayyyyyy

I tried to get her talkin'
She didn't have much to saaaaaayyyyyy
Asked me for a ticket to deeeaaatthhh rooowwww
And I didn't know the waaaaayyyyyyy

She had lost a million in the game
She wouldn't look out my window
At the pine trees
And the rain

It wasn't her gaaammmee

Multicolored Laaddaaayyy
You ain't like no rainbow
I've ever known

Multicolored Laaadddaaayyy
Angry Red, Passion Bluuuee, but mosttllaayyy

Shades of Graaaaayyyyyy

Evening came
And brought more rain...
Nothing seemed to ease heeeerrrrr paaaaiiinnn
All the minutttess seeemmed like hourrssss

Allll in vaaaaaaaiiinnnn

I watched as her teaaarrsss keep runnin' wiiiilllddd

And after awhile, long while, after, way on past

She start smiiiilliiinnn'

Multicolored Laaddaaayyyy
You ain't like no rainbow

I've ever known...

Multicolored Laddaaaaayyy

Please come with mmeeeee, I'll take yooouuuu

To my hooohoooohoooooooommmmmmmmmeeee

Oh, by the waaayy
I'm bound for Rome...
