Searching for a Rainbow
Chasing Rainbows: A Journey of Heart and Hope
Lyrics
(Put your hands together and start making some noise
Encouraging audience participation and applause for the upcoming performance.
And let's do the same when we get them on stage
Encouraging the audience to continue showing enthusiasm when the performers come on stage.
Ladies and gentleman let's give it up for the wild and wooly saddle boogie band)
Introducing and praising the "wild and wooly saddle boogie band."
I rode in to town today in my mind I said Lord I'd love to stay
Expressing a mental arrival in town and a desire to stay, but feeling compelled to move on.
Somethin' in me said boy move on
Feeling an internal urging to continue the journey.
Don't know what it is Lord blessed it in my bones
Uncertain about the nature of the feeling but acknowledging a divine blessing in the bones.
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow and if the wind ever shows me where to go
Expressing the quest for happiness or fulfillment symbolized by a rainbow and seeking guidance from the wind.
You'll be waitin' at the end and I know
Believing that someone important will be waiting at the end of the journey.
And I'll say to hell with that pot of gold
Rejecting the pursuit of material wealth represented by the pot of gold.
I'll say to hell with that pot of gold
Reiterating the rejection of material wealth.
This old mount I'm ridin' is gettin' kinda tired
Describing the weariness of the horse, possibly symbolizing the challenges faced in the journey.
But in my heart he knows there's just one desire
Acknowledging the horse's understanding of the rider's ultimate goal.
He's gonna take me to the end of the road
Believing that the horse will carry the rider to the end of the journey.
And he'll lay down and die and I'll say God rest his soul
Anticipating the horse's eventual rest, expressing gratitude, and acknowledging its passing.
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow...
Repeating the quest for happiness symbolized by a rainbow.
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow...
Continuing the expression of the desire for a rainbow.
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow...
Reiterating the ongoing search for fulfillment.
I'll say to hell with that pot of gold
Affirming the rejection of material wealth represented by the pot of gold.
