The place i was born in Is fading from the map Ooh yeah And the things we believe in And never be coming back So what do you do You run away to some promise land Well i hope and i pray Find what you looking for Looking for some gold in dirty water I know you got to make your way Try to take care and this self Although woman and all cost Rather lean to someone else Looking for some gold in dirty water The river keeps flowing Through time still growing on Trurth keep us hurting Hurt is so Oh remember the time You stood by my side Help my hand a lift it me with dry Now you gone Looking for some gold in dirty water Its hard to keep your hand, clean In dirty water Looking for some gold in dirty water Dirty water, dirty water Yeah yeah ooh yeah Aah yeah Looking for some gold in dirty water
