This
song was inspired by books I read on the death of Elvis,
and the life of Jim Morrison.
It
seems it was the fame and money,
not the drugs that killed them.
Or at least that was my conclusion..
ELVIS PRESLEY HAD SO MUCH GOLD
PEOPLE CALLED HIM THE KING
HE HAD THE DIAMONDS THE GIRLS AND THE CARS
HE DIDN'T NEED ANOTHER THING
HOW COULD A MAN THE WHOLE WORLD LOVED
FEEL SO ALL ALONE?
HOW COULD HE THROW AWAY HIS GIFT FROM GOD
WATCH HIS OWN LIFE SINK LIKE A STONE?
I'VE CONCLUDED FROM ALL THAT I'VE READ
SOMETIMES TOO MUCH IS TOO MUCH
CAUSE' WHEN YOU'VE GOT THAT MUCH GOLD
YOU CAN LOSE THAT GOLDEN TOUCH
CHORUS
SOMETIMES TOO MUCH IS TOO MUCH
SOMETIMES TOO MUCH IS TOO MUCH
WHEN YOU'VE GOT THAT MUCH GOLD
YOU CAN LOSE THAT GOLDEN TOUCH
SOLO
JIM MORRISON HAD SO MUCH FAME
HE WAS THE LIZARD KING
HE HAD HIS MUSE HIS BOOZE AND HIS BLUES
HE DIDN'T NEED ANOTHER THING
HOW COULD A MAN THE WHOLE WORLD KNEW
FEEL SO ALL ALONE?
HOW COULD HE THROW AWAY HIS GIFT FROM GOD
WATCH HIS OWN LIFE SINK LIKE A STONE?
NOW I'VE CONCLUDED FROM ALL THAT I'VE SEEN
SOMETIMES TOO MUCH IS TOO MUCH
CAUSE WHEN YOU'VE GOT THAT MUCH GOLD
YOU CAN LOSE THAT GOLDEN TOUCH
