One Golden Rule Lyrics

One Golden Rule lyrics

There's a heart in the middle of somewhere tonight

Screaming for reasons
or just a way out

I put the shirt off my back on a wager that says

There's one every night from my old school yard days

I hear you say
one golden rule

One golden rule



There's been times I've been
stood in the wind and the rain

Freezing and busted and tricked out of
luck

And I cursed my teachers for all of their reading

What we
needed most can't be found in them books

One golden rule



Now
they teach you to swim but they don't speak of the danger

Tell you the
truth but they never say why

Put you on ice that is thin and tell you
it's winter

Without one golden rule the truth is a lie

One golden
rule
