Looking for spigot valve for 5 gallon pail.

I want a valve to replace the screw on cap for the flexible spout on the 5 gallon buckets we are all very familiar with. All I can find on Amazon are ones that are permanently installed. Since it will be moved from bucket to bucket, I want something to easily transfer. I don't want to know how to rig up something that won't be easily transferred, I'm looking for something to screw on that flexible spout, in place of the cap. Anyone know where to find that?
 
Not that i know of anything that goes on the spout, but if you find a way rig what you want to make it permanent on the 1 lid then just transfer the lid from bucket to bucket.
 
If ur using the newish 5 gallon square soap buckets, each lid has a 1/2 threaded fitting that you can drill out the plug and screw in a 1/2" MPT (Male Pipe Thread) with a hose barb and hose attached. I transfer the lid from soap bucket to soap bucket when pouring is necessary. The round buckets we used to use a drill driven pump or a $2 paint spout with a hose and hose clamp. The spouts didn't work on the Kleen-Rite pails if I remember right.
