Rock on--gold dust woman Take your silver spoon, And dig your grave
Heartless challenge Pick your path and I'll pray
Wake up in the morning See your sunrise--loves--to go down Lousy lovers--pick their prey But they never cry out loud
Did she make you cry Make you break down Shatter your illusions of love Is it over now--do you know how Pick up the pieces and go home.
Rock on--ancient queen Follow those who pale In your shadow
Rulers make bad lovers You better put your kingdom up for sale
Did she make you cry Make you break down Shatter your illusions of love Is it over now--do you know how Pick up the pieces and go home.
Lyrics - live version on The Dance video:
Rock on Gold Dust Woman Take your silver spoon And dig your grave Well its a heartless challenge You pick your path And then you pray You wake up in the morning You see your sunrise, loves, to go down Lousy lovers They pick their prey But they never cry out loud No they don't try out, cry out
Well did she make you cry Make you break down Shatter your illusions of love Well is it over now Do you know how to pick up the pieces and go home
So rock on, ancient queen Follow those who pale in your shadows They say rulers, They make bad lovers You'd better put your kingdom up for sale Well you'd better sell it, sell it
Well did she make you cry, Make you break down, Shatter your illusions of love Well is it over now , Do you know how to pick up the pieces and go home
Well did she make you cry, Make you break down, Shatter your illusions of love, Now tell me is it over now Do you know how to pick up the pieces and go home And go home And go home....
Ooh pale shadow of a woman Ooh black widow, ooh yeah Ooh pale shadow, shes a dragon Gold Dust Woman Ooh pale shadow of a woman, Ooh black widow, ooh yeah Ooh pale shadow, shes a dragon Gold Dust Woman Runnin' in the shadows (woman) Runnin' in the shadows (woman) Runnin' in the shadows Runnin' in the shadows Said something Runnin' in the shadows, Gold Dust Runnin' in the shadows, Gold Dust Runnin' in the Shadows, Gold Dust Runnin' in the shadows
