John Stewart Gold Lyrics

Gold Lyrics

When the lights go down in the California town,
People are in for the
evening.
I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar,
My heart beatin'
time with my breathin'.
Drivin' over Kanan, singin' to my soul,
There's
people out there turnin' music into gold.

Well my buddy Jim Bass he's
a-workin' pumpin gas,
And he makes two fifty for an hour.
He's got rythm
in his hands as he's tappin' on the cans,
Sings rock and roll in the
shower.
Drivin' over Kanan, singin' to my soul,
There's people out there
turnin' music into gold.

Ah the California girls are the greatest in the
world,
Each one's a song in the making.
Singin' rock to me I can hear the
melody,
The story is there for the takin'.
Drivin' over Kanan, singin' to
my soul,
There's people out there turnin' music into gold.

Drivin'
over Kanan, singin' to my soul,
There's people out there turnin' music into
gold.

When the lights go down in the California town,
People are in
for the evening.
I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar,
My heart
beatin' time with my breathin'.
Drivin' over Kanan, singin' to my
soul,
There's people out there turnin' music into gold.
