Lyrics
Her home is a jungle
A struggle to survive
Her street's too
Hot to handle
Makes your blood
Run cold as ice
But there's no evil
Strong enough... oh no
Her faith in love will rise above
Keep on shinin' golden girl
Light a candle for the world
Take your fire from inside
Warm the darkness - light the night
Bring your heaven to the ground
Never let them tear it down
So much soul when you're glowin'
Golden girl
Her heart cries out yearning
For those without a prayer
But the dues she pays unending
Is the cross she chose to bear
And there's no evil
Strong enough... no no
Her faith in love will rise above
Keep on shinin' golden girl
Light a candle for the world
Take your fire from inside
Warm the darkness - light the night
Bring your heaven to the ground
Never let them tear it down
So much soul when you're glowin'
Golden girl
And there's no evil
Strong enough... no no
Her faith in love will rise above
Keep on shinin' golden girl
Light a candle for the world
Take your fire from inside
Warm the darkness - light the night
Bring your heaven to the ground
Never let them tear it down
So much soul when you're glowin'
Golden girl
Won't you keep on,
Won't you keep on
Won't you keep on,
Won't you keep on
Keep on, keep on shining
Keep on shinin' golden girl
Light a candle for the world
Take your fire from inside
Warm the darkness - light the night
Bring your heaven to the ground
Never let them tear it down
So much soul when you're glowin'
Golden girl
