David Bowie – Golden Years: Lyrics and Music Video
Golden Years Lyrics
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Don’t let me hear you say
Life’s taking you nowhere, angel
(come get up, my baby)
Look at that sky, life’s begun
Nights are warm and the days are young
(come get up, my baby)
There’s my baby, lost that’s all
Once i’m begging you save her little soul
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Come get up, my baby
Last night they loved you
Opening doors and pulling some strings, angel
(come get up, my baby)
In walked luck and you looked in time
Never look back, walk tall, act fine
(come get up, my baby)
I’ll stick with you baby for a thousand years
Nothing’s gonna touch you in these golden years
Golden years
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Come get up, my baby
Some of these days, and it won’t be long
Gonna drive back down where you once belonged
In the back of a dream car twenty foot long
(come get up, my baby)
Don’t cry my sweet, don’t break my heart
Doing all right, but you gotta get smart
Wish upon, wish upon, day upon day
I believe, oh lord, i believe all the way
(come get up, my baby)
Run for the shadows, run for the shadows
Run for the shadows in these golden years
There’s my baby, lost that’s all
Once i’m begging you save her little soul
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Come get up, my baby
Don’t let me hear you say life’s taking you nowhere, angel
(come get up, my baby)
Run for the shadows, run for the shadows
Run for the shadows in these golden years
I’ll stick with you baby for a thousand years
Nothing’s gonna touch you in these golden years
Golden years
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop
Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop

Fashion
There’s a brand new dance but i don’t know its name That people from bad homes do again and again It’s big and it’s bland full of tension and fear They do it over there but we don’t do it here…
