John Mellencamp Lyrics

" Golden Gates "

Ain't no golden gates gonna swing open
Ain't no streets paved in natural pearl
Ain't no angel with a harp come singin'
Leastways not that I know of in this world
In these days of uncertain futures
Who knows what the masters might do
They got their big deals goin' on, goin' on
Got nothing to do with me and you
If I could I'd get us a big suite
Overlooking the Park
Only promise I know to be true
Are the promises made from the heart
I don't need to see the whole thing go down
I don't need to see another lonely man
I don't need to see a woman crying for the savior
Holding on to some moneyman's hand
Who can I call to make my reservations
Forever thrown in the dark
The only promises I know to be true
Are the promises made from the heart
I don't believe in the authorities
They ain't gonna take care of me and you
I don't have all the strength that I need
To live the way that I want to
The only promises Iknow to be true
Are the promises made from the heart
Just the promises made from the herat.

  • I love this old song and especially those sang by John. This is a well put together video. Had a dear freind of mine on YT create a wonderful video for me at my request of the song China Girl, another wonderful song by Mellencamp. If you love this man's singing might I suggest that you type in "China Girl" and see for yourself. You won't be disappointed!

  • best one he made, better than rap, more people need to slow down and listen to songs like this one and take the words of to heart.
