Fools Gold - Thin Lizzy[00:00:02]

In the year of the famine[00:00:04]

When starvation and black death raged across the land[00:00:06]

There were many driven by their hunger[00:00:11]

To set sail for the Americas[00:00:13]

In search of a new life and a new hope[00:00:18]

Oh but there were some who couldn't cope[00:00:21]

And they spent their life[00:00:25]

In search of fool's gold[00:00:28]

The old prospector[00:00:52]

He makes it to the four lane highway[00:00:54]

His old compadre[00:00:56]

Lies dead in the sand[00:00:57]

With outstretched hands[00:01:00]

He cries "Are you going my way "[00:01:00]

The people passing by don't seem to understand[00:01:04]

Fool's gold fool's gold fool's gold[00:01:09]

Broken Joe just lying in a gutter[00:01:23]

He's gone as low as any man can be[00:01:27]

He calls for wine but they'll only serve him water[00:01:31]

The bartender say "We don't sell sympathy"[00:01:35]

He tells a strange story[00:01:39]

About his father[00:01:41]

How Sunday mornings they'd go down[00:01:43]

To the church on the corner[00:01:45]

As time grows older[00:01:47]

His thoughts they grow younger[00:01:49]

It is his wish[00:01:51]

To search no longer for fool's gold[00:01:53]

Fool's gold fool's gold fool's gold[00:01:59]

Fool's gold fool's gold fool's gold fool's gold[00:02:42]

The vulture sits on top[00:02:58]

Of the big top circus arena[00:03:00]

He's seen this show before[00:03:02]

Knows someone is going to fall[00:03:04]

Just near the part[00:03:06]

Where the beautiful dancing tightrope ballerine[00:03:07]

Forgets that the safety net[00:03:11]

Isn't there at all[00:03:12]

Down he swoops with claws drawn to take her[00:03:14]

Razor sharp so savagely is she mauled[00:03:18]

Oh my god is there no one who can save her [00:03:22]

In steps the fox to thunderous applause[00:03:26]

Fool's gold fool's gold fool's gold fool's gold[00:03:29]
