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
