Starry night, you guide my dream

City life ain’t what it seems to be

City lights, they make my head spin

I’d like to leave off where I came in, hey yea

 

Rainbow Mountain I’m comin' home

I’ve spent too much time on the road - I’m comin' home

I’m tired of walkin' alone

 

Do us both a favor - Try not to look so good

Do us both a favor and try not to look so good, hey, hey

Nothin' on my mountain wears makeup

There ain’t no reason you should

So do us both a favor and try not to look so good

 

Mama wrap your arms around me

Let me see the eagles in your hair

Let your gravity ground me

It gets cold out there

 

I went to sow my seed in the city

But I can’t get nothin' to grow, so

I’m comin' home - I’m comin' home to hoe my row

Hey, I’m comin' home

 

Starry night, guide my dreams

City life ain’t what it seems to be

City lights they make my head spin

I’d like to leave off where I came in

 

Rainbow Mountain I’m comin' home

I’ve spent too much time on the road - I’m comin' home

I’m tired of walkin' alone

 

Rainbow Mountain where all my friends live

The times we’ve shared and the love that we give

It’s time to raise my voice

I’ve got to make my choice

Hey oh I’m comin' home

Hey I’m comin' home
