Where Rainbows Never Die lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm an old man now, I can't do nothin'
Young folks don't pay me no mind
But, in my day, I sure was somethin'
Before I felt the heavy hands of time, mm

[Verse 2]
I'm an old man now, I'm bound for glory
It's 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

[Bridge]
I've got one last thing to do
One more mile before I'm through
Castin' off these earthly chains
Goin' 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, mm
[Outro]
I'm an old man now, I can't do nothin'
Young folks don't pay me no mind
