Kingdom Of Gold - Mark Knopfler
The high priest of money
looks down on the river
The dawn coming up
on his kingdom of gold
When the rim of the sun
sends an arrow of silver
He prays to the gods
of the bought and the sold
He turns to his symbols
His ribbons of numbers
They circle and spin
on their mystical scroll
He looks for a sign
while the city still slumbers
And the ribbons and
the river forever unroll
In his kingdom of gold
His kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
His kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold

On the horizon
an enemy haven
Sends traces of smoke
high up into the sky
A pack of dog jackals
and a rabble of ravens
Who'll come for his fortress
his castle on high
In his kingdom of gold
kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
his kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold

His axes and armour
will conquer these devils
The turbulent raiders
will falter and fall
Their leaders be taken
their camps
burned and levelled
They'll hang in the wind
from his citadel walls
In his kingdom of gold
kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
kingdom of gold
Kingdom of gold
