(by Burl Ives)
A simple, yet catchy, little folk song. I've had this song stuck in my head since
I was 5 years old, and it still never gets old.
Enjoy the nostalgia.

Intro:
| D - | D - | A - | A - |
When you Dwalk the streets you'll have no cares
If you Awalk the lines and not the squares
As you Dgo through life make this your goal
AWatch the donut, Dnot the hole
| D - | D - | A - | A - |
It's Dwritten on the rainbow
In Gletters made of Dgold
GWritten on the Drainbow
There's wisdom to beAhold
My Dfriend the little sparrow
Flew Gclose enough to Dsee
GWritten on a Drainbow
Is Athis philosoDphy
When you Dwalk the streets you'll have no cares
If you Awalk the lines and not the squares
As you Dgo through life make this your goal
AWatch the donut, Dnot the hole

GLittle angels Dwrote it
So Afolks on earth would Dknow
When you Dwalk the streets you'll have no cares
If you Awalk the lines and not the squares
As you Dgo through life make this your goal
AWatch the donut, Dnot the hole
