Lyrics

[Verse 1] The gold road's sure a long road Winds on through the hills for fifteen days The pack on my back is aching The straps seem to cut me like a knife [Pre-Chorus] I'm no clown, I won't back down I don't need you to tell me what's going down Down, down, down, down, da-down, down, down Down, down, down, down, da-down, down, down [Chorus] I'm standing alone, I'm watching you all I'm seeing you sinking I'm standing alone, you're weighing the gold I'm watching you sinking Fool's gold [Verse 2] These boots were made for walking The Marquis de Sade never made no boots like these Gold's just around the corner Breakdown's coming up 'round the bend (What y'doin'?) [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] Sometimes, you have to try to get along, dear I know the truth, and I know what you're thinking Down, down, down, down, da-down, down, down [Chorus] I'm standing alone, I'm watching you all I'm seeing you sinking I'm standing alone, you're weighing the gold I'm watching you sinking Fool's gold Fool's gold [Chorus] I'm standing alone, I'm watching you all I'm seeing you sinking I'm standing alone, you're weighing the gold I'm watching you sinking Fool's gold
