At End of the Rainbow

There is gold at the end of the rainbow
That's the story that I have told
Bind your shoes pack your bags
Look for a rainbow search for gold

After a long day of busking
I went out to get me a pint or two
I met two guys at the bar
They looked worn out as they've went something through

The younger one told he had traveled
Mountains high and rivers deep
Landscapes and cities around the world
With sparse money and even less sleep
Through the deserts and the oceans
Wit dangerous adventures and heat and cold
When I asked what for he did it for
That is what he told

There is gold at the end of the rainbow
That's the story that I have told
Bind your shoes pack your bags
Look for a rainbow seach for gold

Then the other started talking
Has been there has done that
Met the riches and met those with power
Might they have been good, might they have been bad
Made big business with them all
Has sold and bought things of any kind
Became rich then poor again
But there's still one thing he wants to find

There is gold at the end of the rainbow
That's the story that I have told
Bind your shoes pack your bags
Look for a rainbow search for gold

When they had finished
We fell silent, stared at the glasses
Took a sip
Suddenly it felt uneasy
So I didn't let the moment slip
I'm so sorry to annoy you
And to make you angry too
But before you waste your life
I have a hint for both of you

There is gold at the end of the rainbow
I was there last Sunday afternoon
What I've found there was this guitar
And for you to sing this beautiful tune

There is gold at the end of the rainbow
That's the story that I have told
Bind your shoes pack your bags
Look for a rainbow search for gold
