Motherlode Songtext
von King Swamp

In the City of Dreams all that shines isn′t gold,
In the City of Reason all that shines isn't gold,
We go high on a mountain,
high on a mountain,
high on a mountain,
To find the Motherlode.

In the market place, how we′re bought and sold,
In the market place, how we're bought and sold,
We go high on a mountain,
high on a mountain,
high on a mountain,
To find the Motherlode.

Here I stand in the Heart of the Nation.
HA! Hey Hey!


Government got my money, Ju-Ju man got my soul,
Government got my money, Ju-Ju man got my soul,
I go high on a mountain,
high on a mountain,
high on a mountain,
To find the Motherlode.

AND WE'RE BREAKING UP ROCKS FOR A NEW FOUNDATION,
BREAKING UP ROCKS FOR A NEW FOUNDATION,
PICKING THROUGH THE PIECES IN THE HEART OF A NATION
TO FIND THE CORNERSTONE, HEY NOW.

I wake up in the morning and I′m out of control,
I wake up in the morning and I′m out of control,
Send me high on a mountain,
Send me high on a mountain,
Send me high on a mountain,
To find the Motherlode.

AND YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I MADE WITH MY OWN HANDS,
YOU CAN′T TAKE AWAY WHAT I MADE WITH MY OWN HANDS,
YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT I MADE WITH MY OWN HANDS.

Breaking up rocks for a new foundation,
Picking through the pieces at the Heart of a Nation, Yeh
