[guess of the abandoned first verse - only played in the Mountaintop film]
While walking on the sidewalks
Of the cities and towns
It comes from all voices
But it’s here that they found
It's not just because they’re dreamers
Found a way to be taught
All the dreams that they’re dreaming
In the cities and towns
[start of the actual song]
There's a rainbow of colors
In the old USA
No one's gonna whitewash
Those colors away
Now I know some might tell me
That there's not room for all
And they should just go back
To the places they fall
Where the lives lie there broken
With no chance left at all
And the leaders have spoken
On that side of the wall
There's a rainbow of colors
In the old USA
No one's gonna whitewash
Those colors away
But this I can tell you
We the People are strong
And we know that our brothers
And our sisters in song
Will always sing with us
And we'll always be strong
When the people have spoken
And the walls are all gone
There's a rainbow of colors
In the old USA
No one's gonna whitewash
