Gone the Rainbow

 

Gone The Rainbow

- Peter, Paul & Mary -

 

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo, Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo

When I saw my Sally Babby Beal, come bibble in the boo shy Lorey.

 

Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill who could blame me, cry my fill

Every tear would turn a mill, Johnny"s gone for a soldier. 

 

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo, Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo

When I saw my Sally Babby Beal, come bibble in the boo shy Lorey.

 

I sold my flax, I sold my wheel, to buy my love a sword of steel

So it in battle he might wield, Johnny"s gone for a soldier.

 

Oh my baby, oh, my love, gone the rainbow,gone the dove.

Your father was my only love Johnny"s gone for a soldier. 

 

Shule, shule, shule-a-roo, Shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo

When I saw my Sally Babby Beal, come bibble in the boo shy Lorey.
