The scene was a small roadside cafe The waitress was sweepin' the floor Two truck-drivers drinkin' their coffee And two okie-kids by the door How much are them candies they asked her How much have you got she replied We've only a penny between us Them's two for a penny she lied And the daylight grew heavy with thunder With the smell of the rain on the wind Ain't it just like a human Here comes that rainbow again One truck driver called to the waitress After the kids went outside Them candies ain't two for a penny So what's it to you she replied In silence they finished their coffee Got up and nodded goodbye She called hey you left too much money So what's it to you they replied And the daylight grew heavy with thunder With the smell of the rain on the wind Ain't it just like a human Here comes that rainbow again
