[Verse 1]
Rock on, gold dust woman
Take your silver spoon, and dig your grave
Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale
Wake up in the mornin'
See your sunrise, loves to go down
Lousy lovers pick their prey
But they never cry out loud, cry out

[Chorus]
Well, did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
Is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?

[Verse 2]
Rock on, ancient queen
Follow those who pale in your shadow
Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale, up for sale

[Chorus]
Well, did shе make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shattеr your illusions of love?
Well, is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?
Did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
Now tell me, is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?
[Post-Chorus]
And go home, and go home

[Outro]
Ooh, pale shadow of a woman
Black widow
Ooh, pale shadow of a dragon
Dust woman
Ooh, pale shadow of a woman
Ooh, black widow
Ooh, pale shadow, she's a dragon
Gold dust woman
Woman, woman
