Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I woke up this morning
A rainbow filled the sky
Yes I woke up this morning
A rainbow filled the sky
That was god telling me
Everything's gonna be alright

We so long good friends

When will we meet again?
I said so long good friends
When will we meet again?
Well I don't know, I don't know
But I guess I'll see you then

Well I'm gonna pack my old guitar
Move on down the road
I'm gonna pack my old guitar, now
Move on down the road (where are you gonna go?)
Oh, where I go I don't know
But I guess I got's to go

Well I woke up this morning
A rainbow filled the sky
Well I woke up this morning
A rainbow filled the sky

That was god telling me
Everything, everything's gonna be alright
