Golden Years (Single Version) Lyrics

Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d

(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Don't let me hear you say life' taking you nowhere angel
(come get up my baby)
Look at that sky life's begun

Nights are warm and the days are young
(come get up my baby)
There's my baby lost that's all
Once I'm begging you save her little soul

Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
(come get up my baby)
Last night they loved you
Opening doors and pulling some strings angel
(come get up my baby)

In walked luck and you looked in time
Never look back walk tall act fine
(come get up my baby)
I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years

Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years... gold
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
(come get up my baby)
Some of these days and it won't be long
Gonna drive back down where you once belonged
In the back of a dream car twenty foot long
Don't cry my sweet don't break my heart

Doing all right but you gotta get smart
Wish upon wish upon day upon day

I believe oh, Lord
I believe all the way
(come get up my baby)
Run for the shadows run for the shadows

Run for the shadows in these golden years
There's my baby lost that's all
Once I'm begging you save her little soul
Golden years g-o-l-d

(whop-whop-whop)
(come get up my baby)
Don't let me hear you say life's taking you nowhere angel
(come get up my baby)
Run for the shadows run for the shadows
Run for the shadows in these golden years
I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years
Nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years... gold
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)
Golden years g-o-l-d
(whop-whop-whop)

David Bowie (born David Robert Jones on 8th January 1947 in Brixton, London, UK) was an English rock singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. Active during six decades of popular music and frequently reinventing his music and image, Bowie is widely regarded as an innovator, particularly for his work in the 1970s. Shortly after releasing his 25th studio album Blackstar, it was announced Bowie died on 10 January 2016, following an eighteen-month battle with cancer. At the 59th Grammy Awards on Sun, February 12, 2017, Bowie took the award for "Best Rock Song" for "Blackstar".

As a multi-instrumentalist, he was famous for playing the guitar, piano, and saxophone, but also plays the harmonica, drums, cello, marimba, bass guitar, koto, and stylophone. His first single was released in 1964, but he rose to fame with the 1969 single "Space Oddity" and the 1972 album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. Subsequent albums have explored blue-eyed soul, electronica, and new wave, often pre-dating these genres' popularity or even the point at which they were defined as genres.

Bowie was one of the most influential rock musicians from the 1970s to the present. He has sold an estimated 136 million albums in his career and has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In addition to his musical career, Bowie has had success as a painter, web-designer, sculptor, Broadway actor starring in The Elephant Man, and film actor starring in many films.

Bowie is also credited as being a major inspiration behind the new romantic, futurist movement, and subsequent development of electronic/electronica music.

Bowie frequently brought the worlds of high art, mime, and straight theatre to his stage acts. His most famous on-stage look was that of Ziggy Stardust; other personae include Halloween Jack, Aladdin Sane, and the Thin White Duke. Read more on Last.fm.
