Beautiful South

Good As Gold

Beautiful South


Don't know what I'm doing here 
I'll carry on regardless 
Got enough money for one more beer 
I'll carry on regardless 

Good as gold, but stupid as mud 
He'll carry on regardless 
They'll bleed his heart 'til there's no more blood 
But carry on regardless 

Carry on with laugh 
Carry on with cry 
Carry on with brown under moonlit sky 

I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs 
Not in the star signs 
Or the palm that she reads 
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss 
Not in the next life 
I want it in this 
I want it in this 

Got one note to last all week 
I'll carry on regardless 
The hill to happiness is far too steep 
I'll carry on regardless 

Dried his mouth in the Memphis sun 
He carried on regardless 
Tried to smile and he bit his tongue 
But carry on regardless 

Carry on with work 
Carry on with love 
Carry on with cheering 
Anything above 

I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs 
Not in the star signs 
Or the palm that she reads 
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss 
Not in the next life 
I'll have it in this 
I'll have it in this

I don't want silver, I just want gold 
Carry on regardless 
Bronze is for the sick and the old 
But carry on regardless 

I want my love, my joy, my laugh, my smile, my needs 
Not in the star signs 
Or the palm that she reads 
I want my sun-drenched, wind-swept Ingrid Bergman kiss 
Not in the next life 
I'll have it in this 
I'll have it in this
