Good As Gold Lyrics - The Apache Relay - The Apache Relay

You watched her pack her bags 

She would soon be on her way 

Following some rich kid to L.A. 

Auburn hair was flowing 

Right down past her knees 

You watched her turn her back on Tennessee 

Good as Gold 

That's how I'll remember you 

And those eyes of delta blue 

Good for you 

Turn your back on Tennessee 

Do what you gotta do 

Heaven knows if it's wrong or if it's right 

She is leavin' at first light 

Here I stay 

If I wasn't so afraid 

I would chase her down 

Tonight 

She called in one night crying 

From some bar on the low 

At a crowded party 

All alone 

She said, 'I'm the great pretender, 

driftin' through the days, 

painting black expressions on my face' 

Good as Gold 

That's how I'll remember you 

And those eyes of delta blue 

Good for you 

Turn your back on Tennessee 

Do what ya gotta do 

Heaven knows if it's wrong or if it's right 

She is leavin' at first light 

Here I stay 

If I wasn't so afraid 

I would chase her down tonight 

I've never been the wild kind 

Some kind of flaw in my design 

I couldn't cross the county line 

Good as Gold 

That's how I'll remember you 

And those eyes of delta blue 

Good for you 

Turn your back on Tennessee 

Do what ya gotta do 

Heaven knows if it's wrong or if it's right 

She is leavin' at first light 

Here I stay 

If I wasn't so afraid 

I would chase her down 

Tonight
