14 Karat Gold
By eroica | August 16, 2010
Off the deep end
14 Karat Gold– Gordon Lightfoot
If you see me smile don’t think I’m acting strange
I got my just reward for all my pains
If you see me on the TV talking proud
Please understand if I don’t talk too loud
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set ‘em loose and let ‘em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin’ hot ‘n’ cold
She’s more than money
She’s 14 Karat Gold
If you wonder why I’m acting up this way
Gonna cash my chips I’m leavin’ town today
I got more love than I could ever spend
So long, farewell, good-bye, this is the end
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set ‘em loose and let ‘em roll
Be as cool as ice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin’ hot ‘n’ cold
She’s more than money
She’s 14 Karat Gold
If you get hit by the bug that bit on me
If you get caught with something soft and sweet
If you get found with something you can’t waste
Then listen bud, let me give you a taste
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set ‘em loose and let ‘em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin’ hot ‘n’ cold
She’s more than money
She’s 14 Karat Gold
Sold.

Hello dear, I was just peeking through the artwork and smiling, You have given me yet another idea to write. I think I know what it shall be. You are indeed a muse.
May the bees bless you and give you joyous buzzes as you paint and write. xXx
