Gold gold gold gold
Livin' on this planet together
for so long
one step closer clould never
be wrong
but only for the better and no never
for the worse
placed here with the Lord's care to
share this earth
stop bitin' and fightin'
we're just denyin ourselves
life and love is one
the deeper you delve
stop killing and selling
buying and thinking of gold
forget the body and remember the soul
life is worth more than gold
a soul should never be sold
a lie should never be told
'cos life is worth more than gold

Gold we don't need it
do we
Gold we don't need it
do we
Gold we don't need it
do we
Gold we don't need it
do we
Gold we don't need it
do we
Gold we don't need it
gold

More than gold it's plain to see
Jesus weren't sent to set a precious
stone free
but the heart the part livin'
inside us all
o spiritual entity the silent call
the flower with a power
to live in two worlds
the innocense asleep inside
the boy and the girl
we have to say it
they must be told
life is worth much more than gold
life is worth more than gold
a soul should never be sold
a lie should never be told
'cos life is worth more than gold

Gold we don't need it
do we ...
                    

I was sittin' with him on his front porch swing
Soaking up wisdom and Grandma's sweet tea
Listening to his stories, man, he'd done it all
His tour in the Army and his wilder days
Raising my daddy and bailing his hay
He cut off a twist of tobacco, stuck it in his jaw
Cocked back his hat with a sideways grin and
Gave me that ole wink
He said, I can tell you something 'bout most anything

[Chorus]
But don't ask me about a woman
All I know is boy they're something
They're tender and they're tough
Can break it down and lift you up
Don't ask me about a woman
That's some complicated stuff
They ain't made to figure out
They're just made to love

He said, boy I've lived nearly eighty years
There's a lot of know how, between these ears
But when it comes to your grandma
I'm still your age
It took me a long, long time to learn
Loving a woman is full of left turns
The more they change, the more they stay the same
Son, it's been that way since the beginning of time
We're behind the wheel but just along for the ride

[Chorus]

Fast forward ten years it's Saturday night
She's changed three times, says her hair ain't right
My mind reels back to the time and place
When I heard my grandpa say

Don't ask me about a woman
Boy, that's some complicated stuff
They ain't made to figure out
They're just made to love
Now I know what he's talkin' about
They're just made to love
                    

Stand - you can make it
Stand - you can take it
Stand - realize that nobody can break it for you
Stand - you can do it
Stand - go right to it
Stand - nobody can do a damn thing to you

But you can't stand - if you don't care
Can't stand - if you don't dare
Can't stand - if you're running scared
Forget you're blood & bone
Stand like you're made of stone

Stand - on your honor
Stand - show you're gonna
Stand - they can't put the creeping death upon you

If you stand - never move it
Stand - gotta prove it
Stand - stand 'cause you can't stand to lose it

Stand - stand - stand like a rock
Stand - stand - you stop their clock
Stand - stand - put them into shock
Stand
Stand - stand - together
Stand - yeah you better
Stand - don't you know that you can live forever if you
Stand - one for all
Stand - don't you crawl
Stand - if you stand then you deserve it all

But if you can't stand,
Then they're the boss,
Can't stand - it's a total loss
Can't stand - they'll nail you to the cross
Forget you're blood and bone
Stand like you're made of stone
Stand
