With That Pot Of Gold

SOLD

Mr. Fraser often names his paintings with song lyrics in mind, and sometimes the songs inspire the artwork.

With That Pot Of Gold
20 x 16 inches
Oil on linen panel

I rode into town today… in my mind, I said ‘Lord I’d like to stay’..
Something in me said boy, move on…
Don’t know what it is the good lord bred it in my bones..

And I’m searchin for a rainbow, and if the wind ever shows me where to go, you’d be waiting at the end and I know, I’d see the hill with that pot of gold.
I’d see the hill with that pot of gold

This old mount I’m ridin’, she’s gettin’ kinda’ 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’ll lay down and die and I’ll say ‘God rest her soul’…….

And I’m searchin for a rainbow, and if the wind ever shows me where to go, you’d be waiting at the end and I know, I’d see the hill with that pot of gold.
I’d see the hill with that pot of gold

And I’m searchin for a rainbow, and if the wind ever shows me where to go, you’d be waiting at the end and I know, I’d say to hell with that pot of gold.
I’d 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, I’ll say to hell with that pot of gold…..

I’ll say to hell with that pot of gold…
