Carolina Story - Gold Lyrics

“Gold”

Woke up today this side of the ground
That’s half the battle
Staying up not down
Come on baby can you hear that sound?
Our train’s a-comin’
Gonna leave this town

Woke up today this side of the ground
That’s half the battle
Staying up not down
Ain’t got no money
No help in sight
But it’s alright honey cause we got tonight

It’s getting harder to eat
On this side of the street
But I’m clinging to the words that I was told
As life knocks you down on that dirty ground
All that dust you’ll find was really gold

Woke up today this side of the ground
That’s half the battle
Staying up not down
Come on baby can you hear that sound?
Our train’s a-comin’
Gonna leave this town

It’s getting harder to eat
On this side of the street
But I’m clinging to the words that I was told
As life knocks you down on that dirty ground
All that dust you’ll find was really gold
