Johnny Mainstream - Pot of Gold Lyrics
Walking up slowly on the side of the roadWith your hair slicked back and your eyes on the coalNever ever got to worry about being aloneYou dress real sharp and look real cleanBut nobody sees what's underneathThe fuel, the despair, the hungerStumble into bars with your weary lifeIn your eyes and on your mindRumble with your fists just to get byNever be seen without a drink in handBroken bottles all part of your planWith your eyes on that progressIt was a long time agoWhen you first set your eyes on that pot of goldWandering eyes call for candyIt was a long time agoBefore you left before you got oldLook in the mirror, can you?Now that you're old, now that it's throughNow that you've left and come back againWas it really worth it?Did you see what you wanted to seeDid your eyes widen, stance relax for a minute?Now that you're gone, do you thinkThat anyone cares about what you've done?Was this for you or for someone?
