He was sitting on a bar stool
A picture from a cheating song
She'd been standing by the jukebox
Dropping quarters all night long
He said, "Tell me: are you lonely?
Is there some place we can go?"
She said, "Cowboy, you know I'm lonely
But there's something you should know
If you wanna find gold, go looking in the mountains
If you wanna find silver, go digging in stones
If you wanna find heaven, go reading in the Bible
If you wanna find love, go looking at home."
She touched the gold ring on his finger
And held it to the jukebox light
And she said, "Stranger, think what you're losing
If you leave here with me tonight."
So, he hold her body closer
She felt feelings she'd never known
And he said, "Thank you for the lesson
And if you need me, I'll be at home."
If you wanna find gold, go looking in the mountains
If you wanna find silver, go digging in stones
If you wanna find heaven, go reading in the Bible
If you wanna find love, go looking at home
