From out of the night & into the dawn,

the rose lighted road stretches on & on & on

The carpenters are knockin it up as I come into view...

How this town grows!

I've been searchin for them streets of gold

I don't know but this may be the day that Eldorado is paved with clay

A voice calls from the burning hot,

"It ain't that good but you'll know what you've got"

There's always a sign with a portion that's blown away

It points to home...

I'm not alone on this lost highway

Right from the start I knew that I was running from you

How do I know?

I went searchin for them streets of gold

I don't know but this may be the day that Eldorado is paved with clay

A voice calls from the burning hot,

"It ain't that good but you'll know what you've got"
