Lyrics Van Morrison

Van Morrison

End of the Rainbow

No pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

No social ladder to climb around here

No panhandlers going to stake any claim here

Goldmine is not what it's worth, know the score

No carpetbaggers, come in and take it

That just doesn't exist anymore

Rugs and the furniture just can't be lifted

Everything now has got to be nailed to the floor

So much for capitalism, so much for materialism

Every penny now has got to be earned

Everyone has got to be here at the coalface

Taking coals to Newcastle, you're going to get burned

No gravy train that stops at your station

Every penny has got to be earned

Everyone now has got to be at the coalface

Try taking coals to Newcastle, you're going to get burned

No pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

No social ladder to climb anymore

No panhandler can stake a claim here

Goldmine is not what it's worth, know the score

No carpetbaggers, come in and take it

It's not there for the taking no more

Rugs and the furniture cannot be lifted

Everything has got to be nailed to the floor

No pot of gold, end of the rainbow

No pot of gold, end of the rainbow no more

End of the rainbow no more

No pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

No social ladder to climb anymore

No pot of gold, end of the rainbow

No social ladder to climb

Know the score

Know the score
