Where Rainbows Never Die

[Verse 1] I'm an old man now, I can't do nothing Young folks don't pay me no mind But in my day I sure was something Before I felt the heavy hand of time [Verse 2] I'm an old man now, I'm bound for glory Time to lay these burdens down Had enough of this old world of worry Gonna trade my troubles for a crown [Chorus] I will make my way across the fields of cotton And wade through muddy waters one last time And in my dreams I come out clean When I reach the other side West of where the sun sets, where rainbows never die [Verse 3] I've got one last thing to do One more mile before I'm through Casting off these earthly chains Going where there's no more pain [Chorus] I will make my way across the fields of cotton And wade through muddy waters one last time And in my dreams I come out clean When I reach the other side West of where the sun sets, where rainbows never die [Outro] I'm an old man now, can't do nothing Young folks don't pay me no mind
