Chorus:
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple
Colors of the rainbow, colors so bright.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple
Colors of the rainbow, a colorful sight.

Verse 1:
Red is a stop sign
Red is a strawberry
Red is a fire truck
Red is a bunch of beets
Red is a valentine
Red is a rose. Chorus

Verse 2:
Orange is a pumpkin
Orange is a carrot
Orange is a salmon
Orange is a traffic cone
Orange is an orange
Orange is a sunrise. Chorus

Verse 3:
Yellow is a taxi
Yellow is a lemon
Yellow is a submarine
Yellow is a baby chick
Yellow is a dump truck
Yellow is a daisy. Chorus

Verse 4:
Green is a blade of grass
Green is an emerald
Green is a katydid
Green is a watermelon
Green is a caterpillar
Green is a pine tree. Chorus

Verse 5:
Blue is the sky
Blue is a topaz
Blue is a pair of jeans
Blue is a blueberry
Blue is the ocean
Blue is a butterfly. Chorus

Verse 6:
Purple is an eggplant
Purple is a boo boo
Purple is an amethyst
Purple is an iris
Purple is a purple finch
Purple is a fiddler crab. Chorus
