lyrics

Gold

An old lady once said to me
she said: “You see what I got?”
so I turned to see
she was sitting empty-handed with a secret smile
and she said:
“I got gold and it shines in dark places”

so I thought about this lady
and what she had to say
and I try to put all my life in one day
try to look for that gold in everything I do
and I think I see a little in you

wherever I go
I got gold

so let’s see what we can put into today
I wanna go hear my man Fred Wesley play
the trombone
just one note a piece of gold
that he has inside that’ll never be sold
wanna stir up some trouble
everywhere I go
wanna suck in the sunshine
and roll in the snow
there are so many things that I wanna do
and I think I wanna do ‘em with you

wherever we go
we got gold
