From out of the night & into the dawn, the rose lighted road stretches on & on & on The carpenters are knockin it up as I come into view... How this town grows! I've been searchin for them streets of gold I don't know but this may be the day that Eldorado is paved with clay A voice calls from the burning hot, "It ain't that good but you'll know what you've got" There's always a sign with a portion that's blown away It points to home... I'm not alone on this lost highway Right from the start I knew that I was running from you How do I know? I went searchin for them streets of gold I don't know but this may be the day that Eldorado is paved with clay A voice calls from the burning hot, "It ain't that good but you'll know what you've got"
