The Steeldrivers Where Rainbows Never Die lyrics

I'm an old man now, I can't do nothing<br />
Young folks don't pay me no mind<br />
But in my day I sure was something<br />
Before I felt the heavy hand of time<br />
<br />
I'm an old man now, I'm bound for glory<br />
Time to lay these burdens down<br />
Had enough of this old world of worry<br />
Gonna trade my troubles for a crown<br />
<br />
I will make my way across the fields of cotton<br />
And wade through muddy waters one last time<br />
And in my dreams I come out clean<br />
When I reach the other side<br />
West of where the sunsets, where rainbows never die<br />
<br />

I've got on last thing to do<br />
One more mile before I'm through<br />
Casting off these earthly chains<br />
Going where there's no more pain<br />
<br />
I will make my way across the fields of cotton<br />
And wade through muddy waters one last time<br />
And in my dreams I come out clean<br />
When I reach the other side<br />
West of where the sunsets, where rainbows never die<br />
<br />
I'm an old man now, can't do nothing<br />
Young folks don't pay me no mind
