"El Dorado" lyrics

You have to promise not to tell anyone

Secrets seem to find their way out the dark all the time
The dirty details that you never want brought to the light
If I tell you mine, then know that I'm walking the line
I can't say too much, I'm facing the edge of a knife

Money is the reason I traded my life
Running, now I'm running but I cannot hide
Coming for the favor that he knows that I owe, oh, yeah

El Dorado is the city of gold and I'll
Tell you all its secrets if you don't tell a soul
El Dorado is the city of gold and I
Met the fucking devil, now I reap what I sow
El Dorado is the city of gold and I went
Looking for the money but lost track of my soul
El Dorado is the city of gold and I
Met the fucking devil, now I reap what I sow

The cost of fame was just a small price to pay at the time
A little favor and the devil would change up my life
But now I'm on the run 'cause he wants me dead or alive
The fame and fortune got me trapped in a city of lies

Mirror, mirror, sitting up high on the wall
Save me from the devil that's holding my soul
Coming for the favor that he knows that I owe, oh, yeah

El Dorado is the city of gold and I'll
Tell you all its secrets if you don't tell a soul
El Dorado is the city of gold and I
Met the fucking devil, now I reap what I sow
El Dorado is the city of gold and I went
Looking for the money but lost track of my soul
El Dorado is the city of gold and I
Met the fucking devil, now I reap what I sow
