They faced it Those men of the west The mountains, the prairies, the rivers Here's the story of a prospector Who met up with the worst of them all The dessert When I began my search for gold I stopped to have my fortune told Silently her fingers traced my hand I said “What will my future be?” The only word she said to me was sand I laughed at her and traveled on Until one day stood upon The border of a godforsaken land I knew those hills had gold to fetch Just across that little stretch Of sand Darling, just wait a little longer I'll soon be by your side again I'm almost at the rainbows end My burro died two days ago My water's gone, my step is slow It's still so far to where the mountains stand Not another living soul Just a poisoned waterhole and sand It's gettin' mighty hard to see The desert's playing tricks on me Is that my darling holding out her hand My arms reach out My fingers clutch But Lord above me All I touch Is sand Goodbye darling wait for me no longer My mortal strength is gone at last The spark of life is fading fast Fortunes wait for other men But for me the rainbows end Is sand Endless, burning sand
