I don't seem to know at times what's best
Gowns of satin on ladies gay
And still I'd like to tell her
Yesterday's a carousel
From the coast of California
Up to the Oregon border
That I miss her so, in north Ontario
Catch the ring and all will be well
The big trucks rollin' by
And though I might regret it
Yesterday's a cabaret
I'm so glad I said it way back when
If you're drivin' east to Reno
Yesterday's a cabaret
And still I'd like to tell her
This highway is my rainbow
I've thumbed a thousand miles I guess
Sitting in a roadside diner
Or north to Mendocino
Sounds of laughter on faces gray
I hope you find your rainbow’s end
