RAINBOW ON THE RIVER (Tony Martin)
Louis Alter (m) Paul Francis Webster (l)  1936

as rec by Tony Martin  1936

also rec by Perry Como w Ted Weems & his Orch '36


There's a rainbow on the river!
There's a rainbow on the river!

There's a rainbow on the river,
The skies are clearing;
You'll soon be hearing
A heavenly song
All day long.

When there's a rainbow on the river,
The birds are mating;
They're busy dating
Each other above,
Happy in love.

Let's you and I go sailing
Along the rippling stream;
Holding hands together,
Together we'll dream.

With the rainbow on the river,
You get the feeling
Romance is stealing
Right out of the blue,
Into your heart.

Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm.

Mm-mm, mm-mm-mm.

With the rainbow on the river,
You get the feeling
Romance is stealing
Right out of the blue,
Into your heart.

Let's you and I go sailing
Along the rippling stream;
Holding hands together,
Together we'll dream.

With the rainbow on the river,
You get the feeling
Romance is stealing
Right out of the blue,
Into your heart.
