Where Rainbows Never Die lyrics

[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
