SELLING THE GOLD

Selling the gold
Selling the gold

He was tapping on a Macintosh
And feeling half worthwhile
Saw the ring on his finger there
And that made him smile
He said, "Now all I got to do for you
Is put a state or two between us
Get out from underneath this
And move on."

Take a look at these cufflinks Joe
They're 14K
And this band with these initials
Well, its the same way
This guy walked in and said what will you give me
I just named him a price
He didn't even blink twice
Just gave it away

There's a store on forty seventh street
In fact I know quite a few
You got some jewelry you want to sell
They're gonna buy it from you
And all you gotta do is just put
One foot in front of another
Say goodbye to your lover
And move on

Strange things can happen
You didn't hold the key
One door is closing
To an open door you just can't see
And all you gotta do is just put
One foot in front of another
And say goodbye to your lover
And move on
