Shang-A-Lang a Rainbow (Chip Taylor) Back Road Music, B.M.I. Shang-a-lang a rainbow Hidin' in the shadows Johnny, I've just got to know her name Meet me up in Dallas 10 o'clock, well I guess Johnny, I will never be the same She had the blondest hair She had the greenest eyes She had the deepest stare Oh she could take me there And when she took me there That night in Abilene It was a Texas dream come true Shang-a-lang a guitar Bouncing of a near star Gets her on that floor to do that thing Singing with a passion Anything she's askin' Johnny she keeps askin' for everything She had the blondest hair She had the greenest eyes She had the deepest stare Oh she could take me there And when she took me there That night in Abilene It was a Texas dream come true Shang-a-lang a rainbow E-R-I-N, E-R-I-N Johnny, I just got to know her name E-R-I-N, bouncin' off a Texas wind Johnny, I will never be the same repeat chorus
