A cover of Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 hit song about cocaine and drug addiction, performed by Hole on the 1996 soundtrack to The Crow: City of Angels. Both Stevie Nicks and Courtney Love are famous for their lavish affair with illegal substances.
[Verse 1]
Rock on, gold dust woman
Take your silver spoon
Dig your grave
One last challenge
Pick your path and I'll pray
Wake up in the morning
See your sunlight burning to go down
Lousy lovers pick their graves
But they never cry out loud
Cry out loud
[Chorus]
Did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love
Is it over now? Do you know how?
Pick up the pieces and go home
[Post-Chorus]
Shadow of a woman
[Verse 2]
Back up, gold dust woman
Follow those who pale in your shadow
Rulers make bad lovers
You better put your kingdom up for sale
Up for sale
[Chorus]
Did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love
Is it over now? Do you know how?
Pick up the pieces and go home
Did she make you cry?
Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love
Is it over now? Do you know how?
Pick up the pieces and go home
To go home
[Bridge]
Shadow of a woman
Shadow of a woman, yeah
Shadow of a woman
Shadow of a woman
Shadow of a woman...
