Ain't We Gold

Whirlwind dancing like a snake in the sky
 Whirlwind dancing like a snake
 Friend, don't you let another day go by
 Shaken that your heart might break
 Looking so hard that you can't see the picture
 A number with a magic touch
 Throwing gold bricks through a rich man's window
 Tragic when it don't add up
 But ain't we gold
 Ain't we blue
 Ain't life hard
 Ain't love true
 Baby, it's a good thing
 Baby, it's a good thing
 Baby, it's a good good thing I got you
 A carrot on a string, cartoon wealth
 Oh lord, a carrot on a string
 In churches learning how to hate yourself
 Ain't grace a wretched old thing?
 Whole wide world, stepping on toes
 Whole world stepping on toes
 Chewing up diamonds, shitting out coal
 Tell me where the time all goes
 But ain't we gold
 Ain't we blue
 Ain't life hard
 Ain't love true
 Baby, it's a good thing
 Baby, it's a good thing
 Baby, it's a good good thing I got you
 Whirlwind dancing like a snake in the sky
 Whirlwind dancing like a snake
 Friend, don't you let another day go by
 Shaken that your heart might break
