Words that rhyme with Marlboro
Marlboro is a plain-speech anchor: three-syllable, vowel sitting on the round /ษ/, ending that doesn't close on a consonant at all. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. From the rhyme-data side: perfect-rhyme territory is narrow, no family rhymes survive the strict family test, and the assonance pool runs into the thousands. From the lyric side, it works as a workaday word. The slant-by-vowel column will carry you a long way past the strict matches.

Why marlboro rhymes the way it does
Marlboro sits on the short /ษ/, transcribed /ษ/ in our engine, and ends on an unbuttoned vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 37 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 964, assonance 4,478, and consonance 0. The empty consonance column tells you something โ the closing consonant of this word is rare enough that nothing else in English shares it cleanly. Slant work has to come from the vowel side instead. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Marlboro pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
