Foot From Gold (feat. Paul Harrold and the Nuclear Bandits)

Still dark outside, but I don't mind
Gonna let those sleepers lie
I'm driving up to the mountains
Following the sunrise

This road is old and winding
But I know it like a friend
Cuz I find myself here every time
I get that fire again

Starin' down the tunnel
No seeing what's within
But I love that smell of dusty cool ambition
So I step in

And it's oh, oh
Down I go
It's gotta be here, feel it in my soul
Oh no
Won't go home
Cuz you never know when you're a foot from gold

Got a lot of friends who don't believe
In some old gold rush story
And I don't mind, but I kinda find
Their lives just a little boring

I ain't got time for critics
Tryin' to undermine my dreams
If you sold your soul to mediocrity
Don't you take it out on me

They say the best moves
Won't bring you applause
They're greeted by yawns
So I'm a-keeping on

And it's oh, oh
Down I go
It's gotta be here, feel it in my soul
Oh no
Won't go home
Cuz you never know when you're a foot from gold

Arms are swinging, ears are ringing
Smoke rising all around
Gets hard to see, getting hard to breathe
When there's rocks a-raining down

But when my fingers ache and the ceiling shakes
I got a song that brings me through
And I'll sing it loud till the treasure's found
And I bring it on home to you

And it goes oh, oh
Down I go
Gotta be here, feel it in my soul
Oh no
Won't go home
Cause you never know when you're a foot from gold
It's oh, oh
Down I go
Gotta be here, feel it in my soul
Oh no
Won't go home
Cause you never know when you're a foot from-
You never know when you're a foot from gold
You never know when you're a foot from gold
You never know when you're a foot from gold
