Words that rhyme with Lombardi
Lombardi is a plain-speech anchor: three-syllable, vowel sitting on the short /ษช/, ending that ends on an unbuttoned vowel. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. Pool data: the strict column is unhelpful here, the family-rhyme bucket is bare, and the slant pool, matched on vowel alone, is huge. Its function in a song, meanwhile, is to act as an unguarded everyday word. Use the assonance pool freely; the ear treats most of those matches as rhymes.

Why lombardi rhymes the way it does
Lombardi is three-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the high /ษช/, then it opens out at the end. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1707, assonance 5,052, and consonance 0. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With lombardi, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
