Well-Heeled Men
Josephine Foster

(with The Supposed)nnIf you were humble,nWould you say you're bound to die nMost any day?nnAnd hand your silver to the thief,nAnd share your heart without much grief.nnBut all you own you could never hold,nAnd if you bother to count your gold,nYou'll die before you reach the end,nAnd you would be alone again.nnOnce when you were happy,nPockets empty, full of holes,nYou walked along like a peasantnWithout a hat and only my hand to hold.nnBut now you're heavy with a heart grown cold,nAnd if you bother to count your gold,nYou'll die before you reach the end,nAnd you would be alone again.nnSilver and gold are shining from him.nListen to the steps of the well-heeled men.nSilver and gold are shining from them.nToo heavy laden, their love has worn thin.nnYou like to count your numbers.nYou like a life of luxury.nHave someone to embrace your folksnAnd carry on your progeny.nnBut this dream is getting old,nAnd if you bother to count your gold,nYou'll die before you reach the end,nAnd you would be alone again.nnSilver and gold are shining from him.nListen to the steps of the well-heeled men.nSilver and gold are shining from them.nToo heavy laden, their love has worn thin.nnIf you were humble,nWould you say you're bound to die nMost any day?nnAnd would you hand your silver to the thief,nAnd share your heart without much grief?nnBut all you own you could never hold,nAnd if you bother to count your gold,nYou'll die before you reach the end,nAnd you would be alone my friend.nnSilver and gold are shining from him.nListen to the steps of the well-heeled men.nSilver and gold are shining from them.nnSilver and gold, silver and gold,nSilver and gold are shining from them.nToo heavy laden, their love has worn thin.nToo heavy laden, their love has worn thin.
