《Fools Gold》歌词

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:52] The old prospector

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

[00:00:56] His old compadre

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

[00:01:00] With outstretched hands

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:41] About his father

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

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

[00:01:47] As time grows older

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

[00:01:51] It is his wish

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:03:06] Just near the part

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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