Good as Gold Songtext
von The Apache Relay

He watched her pack her bags
She would soon be on her way
Following some rich kid to LA
Auburn hair was flowing
Right down past her knees
He watched her turn her back on Tennessee
Good as gold, that′s how I'll remember you
& those eyes of delta blue
Good for you, turn your back on Tennessee
You knew what you got to do
Heaven knows if it′s wrong or if it's right She is leaving at first light
Here I stay, if I wasn't so afraid
I would chase her down tonight
She called him one night crying
From some bar on the low
At a crowded party all alone
She said, "I′m the great pretender
Drifting through the days
Painting blank expressions on my face"


Good as gold, that′s how I'll remember you
& those eyes of delta blue
Good for you, turn your back on Tennessee
You knew what you got to do
Heaven knows if it′s wrong or if it's right
She is leaving at first light
Here I stay, if I wasn′t so afraid
I would chase her down tonight
I've never been the wild kind
Some kind of flaw in my design
I couldn′t cross the county line
Good as gold, that's how I'll remember you
& those eyes of delta blue
Good for you, turn your back on Tennessee
You know what you got to do
Heaven knows if it′s wrong or if it′s right
She is leaving at first light
Here I stay, if I wasn't so afraid
I would chase her down tonight
