Rick Springfield - Goldfever Lyrics
That's not the way, that's not the way of the world
Late night creeper with a Saturday Night,
Saturday Night Special
After some poor storekeeper, you need more and more just to
stay alive
But the rich get richer and the poor keep on living in ditches
Goldfever, let me tell you about goldfever
Don't you know that it's on old fever
And I tell you it's a cold killer
Said I'm talking about goldfever
Don't you know that it's an old fever
And I tell you it's a heartbreaker
Yeah I'm talking about goldfever
Let me tell about, let me tell you about goldfever
Big business man, incorporate this, incorporate that, yeah
You're making all them dollar bills
But you no longer see humanity needs love
Ooh, it's a crime, baby in 3/4 time
Go on with your billions
while the people keep on dying in millions
Goldfever, let me tell you about goldfever
Don't you know that it's on old fever
And I tell you it's a cold killer
Said I'm talking about goldfever
Don't you know that it's an old fever
And I tell you it's a heartbreaker
Yeah I'm talking about goldfever
Let me tell about, let me tell you about goldfever
And it hits you like a cold fever
It comes on like a real sensation
But it will leave you in desolation
Yeah, I'm talking about goldfever
And though I know that it's an old fever
It's a number one best seller
And it can put you in heaven or hell
Ah, let me tell you about goldfever
Don't you know that it's an old fever
And I tell you it's a cold killer
Let me tell you about goldfever
Let me tell you about, let me tell you about goldfever

one of first real AOR albums, pure gem !!!
One of my favs & influenced my songwriting
Archangel, Tears drop like diamonds from your golden eyes...One of my most favorite lyrics of all time.

Big businessman incorporate this incorporate that yeah! Probably my next fave album of his next to Living In Oz. Good stuff. This one is less synthesized though too which I like.
His BEST album, imo. I was lucky enough to discover it in the mid-1990s. 'Million Dollar Face' 17:53 is my fave.
Thank you for posting this!! Takes me back to my childhood, sitting on my bedroom floor listening to this play on the turntable! Whoa! lol

Just by luck I found this album when I was a little girl at a surplus city near my house at the time Jessie's girl came out. I loved that record wait for night. I looked forever for a tape or record could never find one... when I met Rick Springfield after a concert I asked him about the album and said that it's not made anymore.. when I found it on YouTube I was excited thank you. 😍for posting it.
I hear so much of his influence from the Beatles in this very early work.
