DEEP IN THE MOTHERLODE

ALBUM: ...And Then There Were Three...

GENRE: PROGRESSIVE ROCK
YEAR: 1978

"Deep in the Motherlode", also entitled "Go West Young Man (In the Motherlode)", is a song performed and recorded by Genesis, with lyrics and music by Mike Rutherford. It was released as the sixth track on the group's 1978 album ...And Then There Were Three... under the title "Deep in the Motherlode".
The song tells a fictional story of a man's travels during the Nevada gold rush and his family's urging for him to get as much gold as he can.
A mother lode is a rich vein of valuable metal in a mine. The lyric "Go West, young man" is a reference to a famous phrase by Horace Greeley, who, in a 13 July 1865 editorial, advised: "Go West, young man, go West and grow up with the country."
The song was performed live by Genesis on their 1978 tour and was used as a frequent opening number on their 1980 tour, but the song was not performed live thereafter. In Japan and North America it was released as a single, but re-titled as "Go West Young Man (In the Motherlode)".
Get out of the way fat man. You got something to do
Go fill up your hands till they're shining up at you.
You gotta get out while there's gold in the air
It's falling like water, coming down from the hills.

Go West young man
Earn a dollar a day just like your family said.
You're rolling your days right on into the night
The head of the line's going way out of sight.
Go West young man like your family said

All along the wagons
All along the dusty trail.
Seventeen years not over a day
Like children in the wild.
Your mother's milk still wet on your face
And no one to pray for your safe journey home.

Out beyond the desert
Across the mountains by the fall.
Servants who leave their masters house
Are walking all the way.
The golden fields that beckoned you
Are darkened by the years.

Go West Young Man
If you knew then what you know today
You'd be back where you started a happier man
And leave all the glory to those who have remained.

So Go West Young Man

Go West Young Man, like your family said.

Jason Mraz's Beautiful Mess: Live on Earth is a live album and DVD by the American singer/songwriter Jason Mraz, released in 2009. It was recorded on August 13, 2009, in Chicago at the Charter One Pavilion.
It has been certified Gold in Brazil.
You've got the best of both worlds
You're the kind of girl who can take down a man,
And lift him back up again
You are strong but you're needy,
Humble but you're greedy
And based on your body language,
And shoddy cursive I've been reading
You're style is quite selective,
Though your mind is rather reckless
Well I guess it just suggests
That this is just what happiness is

And, what a beautiful mess this is
What it's like we're picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write
Kind of turn themselves into knives
And don't mind my nerve you could call it fiction
But I like being submerged in your contradictions dear
'Cause here we are, here we are

Although you were biased I love your advice
Your comebacks they're quick
And probably have to do with your insecurities
There's no shame in being crazy,
Depending on how you take these
Words are paraphrasing this relationship we're staging

And what a beautiful mess this is
What it's like picking up trash in dresses

Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you say
Kind of turn themselves into blades
And kind and courteous is a life I've heard
But it's nice to say that we played in the dirt
Oh dear, 'cause here, here we are
Here we are, Here we are...
We're still here
What a beautiful mess this is
It's like taking a guess when the only answer is yes

And through timeless words in priceless pictures
We'll fly like birds not of this earth
And tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that's no concern when we're wounded together
And we tore our dresses and stained our shirts

But it's nice today, oh the wait was so worth it.

Murda on the beat so it's not nice

For this life I cannot change
Hidden Hills, deep off in the main
M&M's, sweet like candy cane
Drop the top, pop it let it bang (Pop it, pop it)
For this life I cannot change
Hidden Hills, deep off in the main
M&M's sweet like candy cane
Drop the top, pop it let it bang (Pop it, pop it)

Drop the top play hide and seek
Jump inside, jump straight to the leak
Take a sip, feel just how I breathe
On freeway, but no ain't nothin' free (straight up)
Bend laws, bend lanes
Been bustin' bills, but still ain't nothin' change
You in the mob soon as you rock the chain
She caught the waves just thumbin' through my braids (alright)
Heatin' up, baby, I'm just heatin' up (it's lit)
Fiji lover, now they indeed that is impressive
Fill his cup now you know how they keep me up
Icy love, icy like a hockey puck

For this life I cannot change
Hidden Hills, deep off in the main
M&M's sweet like candy cane
Drop the top, pop it let it bang (Pop it, pop it)
For this life I cannot change
Hidden Hills, deep off in the main
M&M's sweet like candy cane
Drop the top, pop it let it bang (Pop it, pop it)

All the ones, all the chains piled on the mantle
All the dogs, all the dogs low creep right behind me in the Phantom
Never go, never go dip on this estates Santana
Yeah, run it back turn the lights on when I hit up Green Lantern
Yeah, fly the broads, fly the dogs down to Atlanta
Yeah, in the cut in Medusa lay low I might be
Yeah, roll up help me calm down when I move in high speed
Yeah, If I send one need the text back 'cause you know what I need
Oh please (oh please)
Oh me (oh me)
Oh my (oh my)
We been movin', we been movin' for some time (Alright!)
Flexin', flexin' try to exercise
Exercise, exercise, exercise, exercise

For this life I cannot change
Hidden Hills, deep off in the main
M&M's sweet like candy cane
Drop the top, pop it let it bang (Pop it, pop it)
For this life I cannot change
Hidden Hills, deep off in the main
M&M's sweet like candy cane

Drop the top, pop it let it bang (Yeah).

Juanita came to me last night and she cried over and over,
 Ooh Daddy I love you you know and I think it's the moonlight,
She looked so fine well she looked alright and she moaned,
Ooh Daddy move over oh baby you know what I like and I think it's the moonlight.
Made in Mexico, schooled in France ooh la lovin' she needed no teachin'
Oh man I can say international ways I believe in.

[Chorus:]
Mexican girl don't leave me alone,
I gotta heart as big as a stone and I need you believe me
to be here and love me tonight.
Mexican girl I want you to stay you know my heart is
longing to say that as long as I live I will always
remember the one that I called my Mexican girl.

Her skin was soft as the velvet sky and her hair it shone in the moonlight,
And as the music did play well the night turned to day and I held her tight,
Then she looked at me with her dark brown eyes and she whispered hasta la vista.
Well I don't know what it means but it sounded so good so I kissed her.


[Chorus]
