I rode in to town today
in my mind I said
"Lord I'd love to stay"
But somethin' in me said
"Boy move on"
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 ever 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"
I'll say "To Hell with that pot of gold"
This old mare I'm ridin' she's gettin' kind of tired
But in my heart she knows there's this one desire
She's gonna take me to the end of our road,
Then she lay down and die and I say "God rest her
soul!"
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind ever 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"
I'll say "To Hell with that pot of gold"
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind ever 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"
I'll say "To Hell with that pot of gold"

What is the meaning behind Searchin' For A Rainbow lyrics?
When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the song 'Searchin' for a Rainbow' by the Marshall Tucker Band narrates a story of a man who believes that the rainbow is the dream and that the journey is the life long pursuit of it and not the material rewards at its end. It puts the importance of life and love that is at the end of the road over the traditional pot of gold. The main themes of the song are adventure, reflection, freedom, empowerment, and inspiration. The song, however, reaffirms the importance of meaning search, anti-materialism, and the three qualities of personhood: determination, journey, and hardship. The lyrics contain a series of profanities ('To hell with that pot of gold') and themes related to human existence and death, which may not be appropriate for youth without adult supervision. ✔️
