I rode in to town today
and in my heart I said
"Lord I'ld love to stay"
But somethin' in me said
"Boy move along"
Don't know what it is
The good Lord bred it in my bones.

(chorus)
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind only shows me where to go
You'll be waitin' at the end, and I'll know
I'll say "To Hell with that pot of gold"

This mare I'm ridin', yeah, she's gettin' kind of tired
But in my heart she knows my one desire
She's gonna take me to the end of that road,
She lay down and die, I'll say "God rest here soul!"

And I'm searchin'...(chorus)
