ain t no golden gates gonna swing open ain t no streets paved in natural pearl ain t no angel with a harp comin 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 promises i know to be true are the promises made from the heart just 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 hands 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 just 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 i know to be true are the promises made from the heart just the promises made from the heart
