Well he came to town with a strong pull, c'mon girl
Would flash his moves for the worshipful, oh worshipful
Well shoulder moves from side to side
Go over your head and dot your eyes
Well dot your eyes

Baby 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"
Oh Cadillac
Well fancy shirts and shorts of plaid
Coat of more colors than Joseph had, everybody had

Well 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
Knock 'em down

Well 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

Well 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
