Enjoy and even watch the video.

Run for the Gold
Lyrics by Aaron Borden (ASCAP)


Riding from the Land of Blood. Blinded by the greed and lust. Gonna reach Paloma, when morning comes. American River here I come.

Would you run, would you? Could you run, could you? Would you run for the gold?

Pony’s head is riding low. No more clay from his hooves to throw. Gonna send my fortune back to Rhome. California I called you home.

Would you run, would you? Could you run, could you? Would you run for the gold?

I might lose it all in this one chance, trading my life for this dance. The whiskey in my pouch is almost empty. Please, Oh Lord, bail me out, make my pony strong and stout. The Trail Boss says, “Just one day to go”!

Would you run, would you? Could you run, could you? Would you run for the gold?
