Iâve just had a few, but I think Iâd know
When a good one comes along
And look at you, I thought youâd go
And Iâd be singinâ some sad song
But thereâs gold in these hills
Gold in these hills, where we lay
And thereâs gold in these hills
Gold in these hills of Saltery Bay
Iâm a small town girl, youâre a big town guy
Youâve been shininâ on that stage
All around the world, Iâll be theyâre wonderinâ why
Youâve just turned the page
But thereâs gold in these hills
Gold in these hills, where we lay
And thereâs gold in these hills
Gold in these hills of Saltery Bay
Iâve never understood why some folks just get lucky
Some lovers just get lucky
And me I just got
Iâm a small town girl, youâre a big town guy
And Iâm shininâ with you now
All around the world, Iâll be theyâre wondering why
I struck gold somehow
And thereâs gold in these hills
Gold in these hills, where we lay
And thereâs gold in these hills
Gold in these hills of Saltery Bay
With you here to hold
Thereâs gold in these hills of Saltery Bay
