| You Got Gold Lyrics |
| John Prine |
| Is there ever enough space between us |
| To keep us both honest and true? |
| Why is it so hard just to sit in the yard |
| And stare at the sky so blue? |
| I've got a new way of walking and a new way of talking |
| Honey when I'm around you, |
| But it gives me the blues when I've got some good news |
| And you're not there to bring it to. |
| Life is a blessing, it's a delicatessen |
| Of all the little favors you do. |
| All wrapped up together no matter the weather, |
| Baby you always come through. |
| It's a measure of treasure that gives me the pleasure |
| Of loving you the way I do |
| And you know I would gladly say I need your love badly |
| And bring these little things to you. |
| Cause you got gold |
| Gold inside of you |
| You got gold |
| Gold inside of you |
| Well I got some |
| Gold inside me too |
| Solo |
| Well I'm thinking I'm knowing that I gotta be going |
| You know I hate to say so long. |
| It gives me an ocean of mixed up emotion |
| I'll have to work it out in a song. |
| Well I'm leaving a lot for the little I got |
| But you know a lot a little will do |
| And if you give me your love |
| I'll let it shine up above |
| And light my way back home to you. |
| Cause you got gold |
| Gold inside of you |
| Cause you got gold |
| Gold inside of you |
| Well I got some |
| Gold inside me too |
| You got wheels |
| Turning inside of you |
| You got wheels |
| Turning inside of you |
| Well I got wheels |
| Turning inside me too |
