(Jimmy Rankin)

I was watching you on TV

Full of confidence and so savvy

I guess you're really something special

So I called you up for an autograph

Though you don't look much like your photograph

These days you're so damn hard to get to

You still got a long way to go

Chasin' down that old rainbow

You still got a long way to go

To get where you are going

Ponytails and gold earrings

Cellular phones and fax machines

Oh what a glamorous life we're living

But it's plain to see what it's all about

When they chew you up and spit you out

In the end there's nothing left for giving

You still got a long way to go

Chasin' down that old rainbow

You still got a long way to go

To get where you are going

People come and people go

Some of them you'd like to know

Others leave you out in the cold and sour

There are very few you'll call a friend

When the shit hits the fan

And you're all alone in the final hour

You still got a long way to go

Chasin' down that old rainbow

You still got a long way to go

We still got a long way to go

Chasin' down that old rainbow

We still got a long way to go

To get where you are going
