into a chorus, but then evolves to a jam. Lyrically, the song is about man suffering from poverty who doesn't just want to watch rainbows, but make his own. There is also a line concerning a relationship with a mother, which is echoed in Lennon's song "Mother", released by him in 1970. Reception In a negative review, author Richie Unterbeger commented that "Watching Rainbows" is "uninteresting" and "chunky" and furthermore calling the track a "throw-away". In a positive review, David Marchese of Vulture called the song "another playful, jammy track from the Let It Be sessions".
