Where There's Gold Songtext

von Small Sins

Four solid walls and a roof that never leaks,
And if I'm hungry, well then I forgot to eat,
I try to try and I haven't stolen I'm sure,
But surely I haven't earned this either.

But where there's gold,
Someone's always gotta go broke,
Out of sight out of mind,
It's easy.

It's getting cold and my birthday's coming soon,
We'll get together for some drinks and times and food,
Celebrate for the sake of nothing at all,
Riding tall on the shirttails of criminals.

But where there's gold,
Someone's always gotta go broke,
Out of sight out of mind,
It's easy.

Tell yourself what you need to to get by,
But we live on the broken backs of our fathers' enemies.

But where there's gold,
Someone's always gotta go broke,
Out of sight out of mind,
It's easy.
