Heart of Gold Lyrics

You think I'm a whore
But I got a, heart of gold
You're lockin' your doors
You're leavin' me, out in the cold
Well I've been bought and baby
I've been sold and I
Need protection from the cold

You may think that my humanity
Has been the cause of all this insanity
This whole damn world's got so much uncertainty
I sure wish you'd see something in me

You think I'm a whore
But I got a, heart of gold
You're lockin' your doors
You're leavin' me, out in the cold
Well I've been bought and baby
I've been sold and I
Need protection from the cold

And You may think that my humanity
Has been the cause of all this insanity
The whole damn world's got so much uncertainty
I sure wish you'd see somethin in me

You think I'm a whore
But I got a, heart of gold
You're lockin' your doors
You're leavin' me, out in the cold
Well I've been bought and baby
I've been sold and I
Need protection from the cold
I need protection from the cold
Yes and I need protection from the cold
I need protection from the cold
I need protection from the cold

Need protection from the cold
I need protection from the cold
Yes and I need protection from the cold
I need protection from the cold 
I need protection from the cold

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
