Lyrics

[Intro]
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
[Verse 1]
Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere, angel (Come, get up, my baby)
Look at that sky, life's begun
Nights are warm and the days are young (Come, get up, my baby)
[Chorus]
There's my baby, lost that's all
Once, I'm begging you, save her little soul
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Come, get up, my baby
[Verse 2]
Last night they loved you
Opening doors and pulling some strings, angel (Come, get up, my baby)
In walked luck and you looked in time
Never look back, walk tall, act fine (Come, get up, my baby)
[Chorus]
I'll stick with you, baby, for a thousand years
Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years, golden years
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Come, get up, my baby
[Verse 3]
Some of these days, and it won't be long
Gonna drive back down where you once belonged
In the back of a dream car, twenty foot long
Don't cry, my sweet, don't break my heart
Doing alright, you gotta get smart
Wish upon wish, upon day upon day
I'll believe, oh Lord
I'll believe all the way (Come, get up, my baby)
[Bridge]
Run for the shadows
Run for the shadows
Run for the shadows in these golden years
[Chorus]
There's my baby, lost that's all
Once, I'm begging you, save her little soul
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Come, get up, my baby
[Bridge]
Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere, angel (Come, get up, my baby)
Run for the shadows
Run for the shadows
Run for the shadows in these golden years
[Outro]
I'll stick with you, baby, for a thousand years
Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years
Golden years
[Outro]
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
