Verse I:
You've got it in the palm of your hands
It's slipping through your fingers like sand
Cause they don't understand who you are
Doesn't matter long as I your star, star
Yeah I know that I need the gold
But what I love can't be bought or sold
Chorus:
Don't think I want what I used to want
Don't think I need what I used to need
Don't think I want what I used to want
Don't think I see what I used to see
Verse II:
I've been waiting, waiting for the penny to drop
I've been working, working to get back what I lost
But whatever happens I'll be okay
Cause fortune's running out of my veins, my veins (uh huh)
You can't take away my statue
so you better make a way
for a Greek gold rush
Chorus:
Don't think I want what I used to want
Don't think I need what I used to need
Don't think I want what I used to want
Don't think I see what I used to see
In El Dorado your gold
To Colorado can't be bought or sold
Verse III:
Now there's no moral to this story
But I can hear my freedom calling me, calling me
Chorus:
I don't care that everybody knows
I'm a million dollars in the hole
I don't care that everybody knows
Baby I don't even want your gold
From El Dorado your gold
To Colorado can't be bought or sold
Gold Rush
Gold Rush
