Over the Rainbow的詞曲作者哈默•威斯創作這首歌時的原始目標是用於電影《大獨角獸》的原聲帶，但他隨即把歌讓給華特•迪士尼電影公司，當時的音樂人拉維•溫弗利已將《Over the Rainbow》當作艾迪•威汀頓兒子（代表美國兒童）的歌曲。以下是Over the Rainbow的歌詞：
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
In the sky, there's a rainbow that I'll wait for
Everyday, dream after dream
I wish that it last forever
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
With the stars up in the sky
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
If you try, you'll see the real
Miracle of every day
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow, into the sky
Then you will feel free, free
If you try, you'll see the real
Miracle of every day
（重複上述歌詞）
