grady spencer & the work - streets of gold lyrics
[verse 1]
well ran dry, cedar whiskey ran cold
he put down his plow, for forty+four
some would come up, said he’d never go back to sleep
said, “i’ve never had a plan for a better life
just k!lled a man for his better night
and try as i may, try as i might
i’ll never make it out alive.”
[chorus]
so lay it down low, swing it on sweet chariot
could you come and take me, to the streets paved with gold
the people gonna know my name
[verse 2]
girl, it done gone by the time he woke
with whiskey in his eyes and his hair full of smoke
you wish someday shе’d stay around for good
said, “you’ve never been a man of thе loving kind
not that i care, and not that i mind
’cause you’re only gonna be here for tonight no more.”
[chorus]
so lay it down low, swing it on sweet chariot
could you come and take me, to the streets paved with gold
the people gonna know my name
[verse 3]
his hands have done curled, and his fists are gray
and 85 years and a ripe old age, wished somebody burned the page or two
said, “i guess i’ll sit around here and wait to die
forgot how to laugh, i never learned how to cry
i wish i had wings, so i could fly away.”
[chorus]
lay it down low, swing it on sweet chariot
could you come and take me, to the streets paved with gold
the people gonna know my name
[chorus]
lay it down low, swing it on sweet chariot
could you come and take me, to the streets paved with gold
the people gonna know my name
