GOLD RUSH Songtext
von Jonny West

Look, look

You′ve got a golden chip on your shoulder, right?
And I don't wanna dip out
But that′s just how love goes when I
See your golden appetite
You floatin' on your golden tide
Then take off on your golden flight
You know that I would give you any gift to get my way

But baby, I just can't afford you
Any time you roll up
Icy with your gold cuffs
Worth more than your soul was
My pockets try to warn you
Dry like California
When your palace blows up
And I can′t be your gold rush
So hold up


Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da


You know that you a great find
Making all your money but don′t make time
Just to FaceTime
And I heard it through the grapevine
You just bought the Grapevine
Just so you could make wine?
I mean, okay, fine
Other than all the rubber bands
Is there any love up in your life
That isn't under couple hundred grands?
Money hands always so cold
When the plan is living solo
And I hope I′ll never be that
I'll sever the leather that ties me to cash
And I′ll never look back
And I'll head to the end of the earth in a raft
And I′d rather have rags
Who needs all the bags when they sent through? (No)
If the rent's due, yeah, cool (It's me)
But I don′t ever wanna live for the next fool
That ain′t special, nah, gimme something to invest to
Wait, the check just went through

But baby, I just can't afford you
Any time you roll up
Icy with your gold cuffs
Worth more than your soul was
My pockets try to warn you
Dry like California
When your palace blows up
And I can′t be your gold rush
So hold up

Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da

I just can't afford you
Any time you roll up
Icy with your gold cuffs
Worth more than your soul was
My pockets try to warn you
Dry like California
When your palace blows up
And I can′t be your gold rush
So hold up

Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba, uh
Ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da
