Lyrics Fools Are A Long Time Coming - Fred Neil

Fools Are A Long Time Coming

If you see a rainbow in your backyard
You better turn your head around the other way
There ain’t no gold on either side, baby
Only fools look there for gold anyway
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
If a man just has to give you somethin'
You better put your hands away behind your back
Ain’t hardly never seen nobody give away nothin'
Oh, without them wantin' somethin' back
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
If you think that you see the reflection
Of love in your own true love’s eye
Be well still running water
'Cause a looking glass just mught be tellin' you lies
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
Yeah mama, fools are a long time comin'
