Well, I walked over the bridge
Into the city where I live
Then I saw my old landlord
Well, we both said hello
There was no where else to go
'Cos his rent I couldn't afford

Well, relationships change
Oh I think it's kinda strange
How money makes a man grow
Some people they claim
If you get enough fame
You live over the rainbow
Over the rainbow

But the people on the street
Out on buses or on feet
We all got the same blood flow
And in society every dollar got a deed
We all need a place so we can go
And feel over the rainbow

But sometimes 
We forget what we got
Who we are
Oh, who we are not
I think we gotta chance
To make it right
We keep it loose
We keep it tight
Keep it tight

I'm in love with a girl
Who's in love with the world
And I can't help but follow
Though I know some day
She is bound to fly away
And stay over the rainbow
Gotta learn how to let her go
Over the rainbow

But sometimes 
We forget who we got
Who they are
Oh, who they are not
There is so much more in love
Than black and white

I keep it loose now, child
Gotta keep it tight
I gotta keep it loose now, child
Keep it tight
Keep it tight
Keep it tight, yeah
