I go, I go walking south by the river I´m told, I´m told I´ll find gold by the river So long so long My dear friends and hello strangers Oh shine oh shine
My sweet metal please release Oh my bodies soar, don´t hurt no more
It´s time it´s time I hope my search will find an answer It´s hard but I keep on wondering how My life could change for the better You know I tried to get things right Thought this would be the answer So wash so wash Wash that dirt from my treasure
Oh this precious gold won´t make me whole Please let me go
All I ever wanted was right in front of me This life made me empty I´ve got nothing left to give
How you hurt my pride, you pushed me down to the ground All you ever wanted was to hold me down
It´ hard but I keep on wondering how My life could change for the better You know I tried to get things right Thought this would be the answer So I wash, I wash I wash that dirt from my treasure It´s hard, so hard But I learn and I get better Oh this precious gold won´t make me whole
