lyrics

Julie paints her eyes and lips as red as lies
In silk stockings her legs are walking
With a silicone shake a mink eyelash
She fakes a smile

But there’s gold in them hills – boys will pay the bills
She’s a deep valley to rest their heads
She says “it’s just the way it is…it’s just the way it is”

Julie slips inside a corset made of iron
She can’t remember when breathing was free
She has nothing comfortable but a lot to see
She has a lot to see

But there’s gold in them hills – boys will pay the bills
And if it takes her scars and pills
She’s living high still…she’s living high still

Look at me – I could be Julie easily
Not such a leap to see the truth behind the trickery

But there’s gold in them hills – boys will pay the bills
And if you ask if she has a happy life
She’s likely just to lie…she’s likely just to lie

But there’s gold in them hills – boys will pay the bills
And if it takes her scars and pills
She’s living high still…she’s living high still

Julie paints her eyes
Julie paints her eyes
