There's Gold In Them Hills Lyrics - Black Crowes

On the first day of winter 

I was set to leave 

With the lost awe of true love in my eye 

The wild frontier outlaws and thieves 

To find me a mountain in the sky 

There's gold in them hills 

I heard the man cry 

There's gold in them hills 

For the taking 

It's a one-way ticket down a river of lies 

There's gold in them hills 

If you make it

On the last day of spring 

I first saw the sea 

A poor boy with good luck on my side 

Ready for riches 

I rolled up my sleeve 

And took my first step down my life 

Had my wallet same old pocket 

Sixteen dollars brand new shoes 

Empty bottles sad turned daughters 

What's a country boy to do 

Tell dear mother that I miss her 

But things are different now 

There's nothing I can do 

Your dark haired son is now long gone 

Remember me 

When you stare at the moon 

Photos 

I've broken my heart 

Diamonds and gold 

Through scandal through madness through cold 

All I have left is this grey in my beard 

This mountain and the stories that I've told 

There's gold in them hills 

I heard the man cry 

There's gold in them hills 

For the taking 

It's a one-way ticket down a river of lies 

There's gold in them hills 

If you make it
