Mark Walton - Fool's Gold Lyrics

I gave you everything, let you shine in my life
You count every dime, what you'll pull from the night
Didn't think that I'd know, girl, I've been to the show
I messed with the best and your moves are so light

Oh, I'm no fool, girl, yeah, I know the game
Take what you can, girl, I'm doing the same
While you're seeking riches, know I've got a plan
You might think you're winning, but don't know who I am

You flash that smile like you're setting a pace
Thinking I'm hooked, head lost in the chase
But know all the while, I'll be wearing a smile
I'm biding my time and I'm holding an ace

Oh, I'm no fool, girl, yeah, I know the game
Take what you can, girl, I'm doing the same
While you're seeking riches, know I've got a plan
You might think you're winning, but don't know who I am

Girl, you're chasing status, but I'm chasing it too
Just taking my time till I'm ready for new
Playing a scene, oh, you know what I mean
Child, I've got a road and it don't lead to you

I hold you away when the morning feels right
Leave you to wonder why I slip out of sight
Think you're so smart that you've won my heart
But this front seat fire and it's too shrewd to bite

Oh, I'm no fool, girl, yeah, I know the game
Take what you can, girl, I'm doing the same
While you're seeking riches, know I've got a plan
You might think you're winning, but don't know who I am

You think that your beauty will earn you the prize
But girl, I see through it, past glitter and lies
I gave you a lot, just not what you thought
There are all kinds of players, girl, and I'm just your size
