THERE'S A RAINBOW IN THE VALLEY
(Shirley Scott / Roy Ward / Harry James)
as recorded by The Andrews Sisters
with Sonny Burke & his Orchestra
1954
There's a rainbow,
You can see the rainbow,
In the valley,
Way down in the valley,
Since you've come home to stay.
There's a robin,
Pretty little robin,
Singin' sweetly,
Singin' oh so sweetly,
He must know it's my lucky day!
There's a cricket
Chirpin' on the hot stone,
And the ripplin' stream is bubblin' away.
There's a rainbow,
You can see the rainbow,
In the valley,
Way down in the valley,
Since you've come home to stay.
There's a rainbow,
You can see the rainbow,
In the valley,
Way down in the valley,
Since you've come home to stay.
There's a robin,
Pretty little robin,
Singin' sweetly,
Singin' oh so sweetly,
He must know it's my lucky day!
There's a cricket
Chirpin' on the hot stone,
And the ripplin' stream is bubblin' away.
There's a rainbow,
You can see the rainbow,
In the valley,
Way down in the valley,
Since you've come home to stay,
Since you've come home to stay!
