B. r. hornsby



Well he came to town with a strong pull

Would flash his moves for the worshipful

Shoulder moves from side to side

Go over your head and dot your eyes



Every night about a quarter to ten

>from the middle of june to the summer's end

People would gather from miles around

To see the mighty rainbow knock 'em down



He'd pull up from around the back

Folk's say, "there's rainbow's cadillac"

Fancy shirts and shorts of plaid

Coat of more colors than joseph had



Every night about a quarter to ten

>from the middle of june to the summer's end

People would gather from miles around

To see the mighty rainbow knock 'em down



Take a quarter from the collection plate

Every night he would dominate

Jump to the top and pick off a dime

Throw it down at the proper time



Every night about a quarter to ten

>from the middle of june to the summer's end

People would gather from miles around

To see the mighty rainbow knock 'em down
