Everything That Glitters (Is Not Gold)

Intro             


                                                
Saw your picture on a poster, in a cafe out in Phoenix

                                         
Guess you're still the sweet heart of the rodeo

                                               
As for me and little Casey, we still make the circuit

                                  
In a one horse trailer and a mobile home

                                    
And she still asks about you all the time

                                     
And I guess we never even cross your mind


(Chorus)


                          
But oh sometimes I think about you

                         
And the way you used to ride out

                             
In your rhinestones and your sequins

           
With the sunlight on your hair

                             
And oh the crowd will always love you

                            
But as for me I've come to know

                               
Everything that glitters is not gold


                                                     
Well old Red he's getting older, and last Saturday he stumbled

                                        
But you know I just can't bear to let him go

                                                          
Little Casey she's still growing and she's started asking questions

                                           
And there's certain things a man just doesn't know

                                     
Her birthday came and you never even called

                                   
I guess we never cross your mind at all


(chorus)

                                 
Everybody said you'd make it big someday

                                   
And I guess that we were only in your way

                                                  
But someday I'm sure your gonna know the cost

                                               
Cause for everything you win there's something lost


(chorus)


                        (Accapella)
Everything that glitters is not gold
