So many tales by human kind endeavour to be told
But never has there been a story quite like that of gold
It walks with every government with pope and president
Each church of every god has given it their commitment
A story of each human child that bought and lent and sold
And every war that ever waged came from the metal cold
It buys the soul of every being that owes its daily rent
An everlasting debt to all the gold the world has spent
