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 one day

Try to look for that gol 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

I 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
