Dreams Of Gold Lyrics

Robert
We always swore we'd stick together
In America - remember that? Arvid
It was a solemn promise! Robert
Then I will tell you all about my secret plan
We're heading west to dig for gold in California Arvid
And you want me to come along Robert
And when we've dug our fill
we're going home again
to build a mansion where we'll
Live like country squires! Robert & Arvid
There's no farmhand who's done that before Arvid
Still and all it's pleasant here,
why be in such a hurry Robert
Think of all the poor old wretches
that we left behind us Arvid
They slave all their life for a pittance
They're treated like swine and
they sleep in a sty
Where they scuffle for
crumbs till the day that they die Robert
No, we mustn't end up as paupers Robert & Arvid
Our future is in California and waiting
out there is a bright shining mountain of gold Robert
It knows we are coming Arvid
Yes, I hear it calling Robert
The sooner the better Robert & Arvid
We're on our way! Karl OskarKristina - Dreams Of Gold - http://motolyrics.com/kristina/dreams-of-gold-lyrics.html
The pitiless fight for survival out there,
Would be fatal for you and your
whims can only lead to disasters Robert
Don't you see that scratching for gold
will be heaven. For one who has
worked for the wickedest of masters Karl Oskar
You're too young to make it,
Just eighteen, remember! Robert
At fourteen - remember!
You knew exactly where you were heading Karl Oskar
That was back at home, things were different in
Sweden Robert
No older than fourteen, you seem to be forgetting Karl Oskar
As a child you went reaching for rainbows,
I see that you still do Robert
All the rich men out in California piss into
pots made of gold Karl Oskar
Every word I lie. And so typical of you! Robert
They all dawdle about night and day; without shame,
so I'm told! Karl Oskar
So you think you just pick up a
spade and your fortune will be made Robert
And when I return I'll share it with you fairly
- The brotherly way! Karl Oskar
Well, you mark my words;
you'll regret your escapade Robert & Arvid
There is nothing to add
We are leaving whatever you say
