Lyrics Robert Plant

Robert Plant

Pocketful of Golden

And if the sun refused to shine

Upon my island home

And darkness fell upon the earth

And once again walk alone

I have pockets full of golden

A little more with every day

Inside my coat a silver lining

Who knows the price I have to pay

Once I was set up upon by thieves

You know they stole my heart away

I finally found it in your arms

And that's just where it's going to stay

I wondered high upon the mountain

With the naked and the free

And if I bare my soul in asking

One day she'd care for me

Red hair, raven hair gold like the sun

All of us in motion, moving on and gone

And I was cast out on the ocean

Adrift to count the seven seas

So all alone, so high and lonesome

Maybe, one day, she'll care for me

Cause I have pockets full of golden

A little more with every day

Inside my coat a silver lining

Who knows the price I have to pay

Red hair, raven hair gold like the sun

All of us in motion, moving on and gone
