John Denver (prefer Avett Brothers version), Spanish Pipedream

Whichever version one prefers, John Prine wrote it.

Whichever version one prefers, John Prine wrote it.

That makes more sense. I didn't know John Denver sang it and when I looked up to get the last verse changes, the results showed John Denver in the lyrics. Seemed a little off perhaps for him.

 

[Deadalus]

Ah sounds much better with John Prine singing it than John Denver.

There's a lady who's sure,

[balrog]

There's a lady who's sure,

-dang, can't remember the rest of it.

Memories light the corners of my mind...

 

[day_trippr]

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
When she gets there she knows, if the store are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.

Locked in a struggle for the right combination -
Of words in a melody line,
I took a walk along the riverbank of my imagination.
Golden clouds were shuffling the sunshine.

[Gadjobrinus]

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
When she gets there she knows, if the store are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.

There's a lady who's sure,

-dang, can't remember the rest of it.
