Gold Lyrics By John Stewart

    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
    my heartbeat in time with my breathing

    driving over kanan singing to my soul
    there’s people out there turning music into gold

    ah my buddy jim bass he’s aworking pumping gas
    and he makes twofifty for an hour
    he’s got rhythm in his hands as he’s tapping on the cans
    sings rock and roll in the shower

    driving over kanan singing to his soul
    there’s people out there turning music into gold

    ah california girls are the greatest in the world
    each one a song in the making
    singing right to me i can hear the melody
    story is there for the taking

    driving over kanan singing to my soul
    there’s people out there turning music into gold

    ooh

    driving over kanan singing to my soul
    there’s people out there turning 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
    my heartbeat in time with my breathing

    driving over kanan singing to my soul
    there’s people out there turning music into gold

    flying over kanan singing to my soul
    people out there turning music into gold
    people out there turning music into gold
    people out there turning music into gold

    ooh yeah

    people out there turning music into gold into gold
    people out there turning music into gold into gold
    people out there turning music into gold into gold
    yes babe
    people out there turning music into gold into gold
    rocking on the radio
    people out there turning music into gold into gold
    slipping down the back road
    people out there turning music into gold into gold
    people out there turning music into gold into gold
