Poor Man's Riches

(Benny Barnes - Dee Marais)



I've traveled to the ends of the rainbow

And I've looked for that old pot of gold

But I didn't realize until I looked into your eyes

That I had a greater wealth than ever told.



Chorus:

Into each life there's many kinds of riches

There's diamonds, there's pearls and there's gold

But I'd be the richest man in this wonderful land

If I had you to have and to hold.



A true love is the greatest of all riches

A true love will never grow cold

A real love is all that really matters

For it's worth more than diamonds, pearls and gold.



Chorus:

Into each life there's many kinds of riches

There's diamonds, there's pearls and there's gold

But I'd be the richest man in this wonderful land

If I had you to have and to hold.



I'd be the richest man in this wonderful land

If I had you to have and to hold...



Moderator Note: there are several version.

One has the first verse - line two as: And I've searched for that old pot of

gold.

The chorus second line as: Well, there's diamonds, there's pearls and

there's gold.

The second time through the chorus second line as: Oh, there's diamonds,

there's pearls and there's gold.

Finally the bottom two lines are omitted in this version.
