Gordon Lightfoot 14 Karat Gold
If you see me smile, don't think I'm acting strange
I got my just reward for all my pains
I you see me on the TV talking proud
Please, understand if I don't talk too loud
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set 'em loose and let 'em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin' hot and cold
She's more than money
She's 14 karat gold
If you wonder why I'm acting up this way
Gonna cash my chips, I'm leavin' town today
I got more love than I could ever spend
So long, farewell, good-bye, this is the end
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set 'em loose and let 'em roll
Be as cool as ice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin' hot and cold
She's more than money
She's 14 karat gold
If you get hit by the bug that bit on me
If you get caught with something soft and sweet
If you get found with something you can't waste
Then listen bud, let me give you a taste
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set 'em loose and let 'em roll
This is my advice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin' hot and cold
She's more than money
She's 14 karat gold
Step around and dance a bit
Polish up the dice
Set 'em loose and let 'em roll
Be as cool as ice
Keep your mind a mystery
Runnin' hot and cold
She's more than money
She's 14 karat gold
