Steve Forbert’s Midsummer Night’s To - Steve Forbert

Here's to all you lucky dogs it's heads or tails

Here's to all you filthy rich I wish you well

Here's to all the pretty women made for cash

And here's to dashing daddy's son he's such a flash

Well I been looking and walking 'round the

Sunset square

Singing and talking with my friends down there

Sitting and listening with a young man's ear

To all the rainbow dreams

Here's to all the sh*tty jobs that I despise

Here's to two bit guarantees and other lies

Here's to roads of burning tar and hot cement

Here's to money in my hand and where it went

Well I got my fingers a tapping on the hard

Stone steps

I'm waiting for lightning and the rains to fall

Young lovers are loafing with their sidewalk smiles

And all their rainbow dreams

Amy Alice in the summer

With a sack lunch and a punch card

See my sister with a drag job

Man she feels like she's a hundred years ago

Here's to people living lives that they regret

Work your fingers to the bone and sink in debt

Here's to all those shaky tricks that hustlers try

You know their easy money is oft' times hard

They flash a grin and they wink their eye well

I been living and breathing in the rat trap town

Tryna get over where the wall breaks down

Holding my head up with my thin tired arms

And all my rainbow dreams
