Gold

No
All that glitters is not gold
This glittering little red truck
is more precious than gold to me
Should you get a little red truck
take you where e're you want to go
My glittering little red truck
will cost an arm and leg to you
'Cause my precious little red truck
worth to me more than all the gold
Keep your gold leave my truck alone
