The Black Crowes

The Black Crowes - There's Gold In Them Hills lyrics

rate me

On the first day of winter

I was set to leave

With the lost awe of true love in my eye

The wild frontier outlaws and thieves

To find me a mountain in the sky

There's gold in them hills

I heard the man cry

There's gold in them hills

For the taking

It's a one-way ticket down a river of lies

There's gold in them hills

If you make it

On the last day of spring

I first saw the sea

A poor boy with good luck on my side

Ready for riches

I rolled up my sleeve

And took my first step down my life

Had my wallet same old pocket

Sixteen dollars brand new shoes

Empty bottles sad turned daughters

What's a country boy to do

Tell dear mother that I miss her

But things are different now

There's nothing I can do

Your dark haired son is now long gone

Remember me

When you stare at the moon

I've broken my heart

Diamonds and gold

Through scandal through madness through cold

All I have left is this grey in my beard

This mountain and the stories that I've told

There's gold in them hills

I heard the man cry

There's gold in them hills

For the taking

It's a one-way ticket down a river of lies

There's gold in them hills

If you make it
