Poor Man's Gold

The rich man asked the preacher
To help him find the truth
He was looking for his soul
That got thrown out with his youth
Spent a whole life chasing money
The man had lost his way
And he couldn't understand
What the preacher man was about to say

He said a fool's ambition is all you know
There ain't no doubt it's gonna make you whole
There ain't no tellin' what you've been told
But your money won't buy you no poor man's gold

He said I've been thinking about what you said
It's been a minute since I made my bed
I chased down the living
But I wasn't living at all
And it shook me to the cold brother when I heard your call

When a fool's ambition is all you know
There ain't no doubt it's gonna make you whole
There ain't no tellin' what you've been told
But your money won't buy you no poor man's gold
No your money won't buy you no poor man's gold

A fool's ambition is all you know
There ain't no doubt it's gonna make you whole
There ain't no tellin' what you've been told
But your money won't buy you no poor man's gold
No your money won't buy no poor man's gold

When a fool's ambition is all you know
There ain't no doubt it's gonna make you whole
There ain't no tellin' what you've been told
But your money won't buy you no poor man's gold
No your money won't buy you no poor man's gold

No your money won't buy no poor man's gold
No your money won't buy no poor man's gold
