Pocketful Of Golden Songtext / Lyric

And if the sun refused to shine

Upon my island home

And darkness fell upon the earth

And once I walk alone



I have pockets full of golden

A little more wirth every day

Inside my coat a silver lining

Who knows the price I have to pay



Once I was set up upon by thieves

They stole my heart away

I finally found it in your arms

And that's just where it's going to stay






I wondered high upon the mountain

With the naked and the free

And if bare my soul in asking

One day she'd care for me



Red hair, raven hair gold like the sun

All of us in motion, moving on and gone



And I was cast out on the ocean

Adrift to count the seven seas

So all alone, so high and lonesome

Maybe, one day, she'll care for me



I have pockets full of golden

A little more with every day

Inside my coat a silver lining

Who knows the price I have to pay



Red hair, raven hair gold like the sun

All of us in motion, moving on and gone
