Everything That Glitters (is Not Gold) Lyrics - Singles - Dan Seals

Saw your picture on a poster in a cafe out in Phoenix 

Guess you're still the sweetheart of the rodeo 

As for me and little Casey, we still make the circuit 

In a one horse trailer and a mobile home 

And she still asks about you all the time 

And I guess we never even cross your mind 

But, oh sometimes I think about you 

And the way you used to ride out 

In your rhinestones and your sequins 

With the sunlight on your hair 

And, oh the crowd will always love you 

But as for me, I've come to know 

Everything that glitters is not gold 

Well, Old Red, he's getting older and last Saturday he stumbled 

But you know I just can't bear to let him go 

Little Casey, she's still growing and she's started asking questions 

And there's certain things a man just doesn't know 

Her birthday came and you never even called 

I guess we never cross your mind at all 

But then sometimes I think about you 

And the way you used to ride out 

In your rhinestones and your sequins 

With the sunlight on your hair 

And, oh the crowd will always love you 

But as for me, I've come to know 

Everything that glitters is not gold 

Everybody said you'd make it big someday 

And I guess that we were only in your way 

But someday I'm sure you're gonna know the cost 

'Cause for everything you win, there's somethin' lost 

But, oh sometimes I think about you 

And the way you used to ride out 

In your rhinestones and your sequins 

With the sunlight on your hair 

And, oh the crowd will always love you 

But as for me I've come to know 

Everything that glitters is not gold 

Everything that glitters is not gold
