Vampire Weekend - Married In A Gold Rush Lyrics






Something's happening in the country
And the government's to blame
We got married in a gold rush
And the rush has never felt the same

Shared a moment in a café
Shared a kiss in pouring rain
We got married in a gold rush
And the sight of gold will always bring me pain

Vampire Weekend Married In A Gold Rush Comments
  1. E.... A....

    Smartness is important in marriage and in a relationship and I’m glad that cyberhackinggenius helped cloned my husband’s phone. I got access to all his dealings both on phone and social media without touching his phone. All I did was share my husband’s phone number with Cyberhackinggenius and I was able to read both his new and deleted messages from my phone without having to touch his phone. My husband was a cheating Narcissist and I’m glad to find out all his secrets and infidelity with the help of cyberhackinggenius. I’m here in UK and able to access my husband’s phone messages with a link on my phone even while he was away in Canada cheating on me. I got to discover that my husband who is legally married to me here in UK is also recently married to another woman in Canada and I’m finally going through a divorce with lots of evidence against him. I read all deleted and recent chats on his Whatsapp, Twitter,Facebook,Instagram messages and Skype. You can contact this great hacker “Gavin” via Gmail  (cyberhackinggenius) or text and speak to him directly on his phone and WhatsApp : +19256795146 and I hope you find peace with your heart after finding the truth.

    Fuck you bastard tube.-

  3. Z.... C....

    Guck yxou hubr

  4. h.... b....

    the beginning sounds like Discovery's swing tree

  5. C.... M....

    Please do a music video of this one!!! This was my absolute favorite track off this new album!

  6. Z.... C....

    97 % of the songs are about women men love & so on. What about songs for singles.

  7. Z.... C....

    Makes no sense. But I like the melody.

  8. Z.... C....

    What the fuck is "porn rain"?

  9. C.... M....

    I was really hoping for a video for this song! Definitely my favorite of the new album

  10. R.... M....

    y'all forgot to add this to the youtube playlist

  11. M.... T....

    kind of takes me back to a nit of green day days

  12. W.... J....

    🌍🌎🌏

  13. N.... B....

    I’m seeing their concert next week, I’m so excited!

  14. a.... ....

    june carter/johnny cash vibes yee yee

  15. V.... M....

    Having a song where the female singer has a slight masculinity to her voice and a male singer has a slightly androgynous voice is a thing of pure genius

    V.... M....

    Nice catch

  16. a.... ....

    The "we got married in a gold rush" reminds me of Johnny Cash and June Carter..."We got married in a fever "

  17. P.... K....

    one of the best

  18. R.... S....

    this song could be the prequel to hannah hunt from the last album or maybe the conclusion

  19. C.... (....

    My mum bought the cd for this album and kept telling me about her new "Vampire Brides" album. Then when I assured her it wasn't vampire brides, she kept thinking it was "Vampire Garden."

    C.... (....

    Vampire Garden is a whole mood

  20. r.... ....

    Worst song on the album by quite a bit.

  21. M.... M....

    No 1 on Billboard 200 chart /2019.05.18

  22. I.... ....

    Okay, I love it and I love you all and please don't take this the wrong way, but this one sounds like Let's Duet by goddamn Dewey Cox.

  23. A.... ....

    Love, love their voices together. And the lyrics. Fantastic.

  24. C.... R....

    Love Vampire Weekend!

  25. h.... ....

    This song or Flower Moon is my favorite on the entire record, the duet is just so beautiful and warm

  26. V.... S....

    i'm just here for her = Danielle Haim

  27. C.... ....

    I love this song too much. Danielle's voice is so amazing.

  28. 1.... ....

    What’s this song about?

    1.... ....

    it's about a couple that fell out of love after years of being married and now they're trying to fix things. the got married during a time where it all felt wonderful (a gold rush) but things got sour soon afterward ("all that loving turned to hate").

  29. B.... W....

    fave song <33333

  30. r.... ....

    This album is a flat out masterpiece. I'm sure it will alienate some fans who don't like bands to expand on their sound.

  31. D.... V....

    Best country song of 2019

  32. E.... G....

    Brilliant song! Who else has the creativity and the guts to make this kind of music any more? So uncool it's cool by default.

    E.... G....

    Exactly hahaha. Got that same feeling with "Stranger" and "Sympathy"

  33. A.... T....

    It's so nice that Danielle didn't offer food to ezra and ariel, instead she delivered Vocals

  34. m.... ....

    Holy shit this is so bland lmao

  35. a.... M....

    Billy Eilish who? This is awesome music. Fuck that wannabe emo/goth chick

  36. J.... L....

    It's as bad as I told it was

    J.... L....

    No Jeff.

  37. C.... O....

    we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout.

    C.... O....

    First thing I thought of too when I heard that line!

  38. G.... ....

    This album is it. THIS ALBUM IS IT

    G.... ....

    I've listened to it once and I'm already willing to call it one of the best albums I've ever heard.

    G.... ....

    THIS ALBUM IS LIT

    G.... ....

    THIS ALBUM IS LIT

  39. P.... N....

    i love this song

  40. o.... m....

    "i thought you might learn to sing" wow can't believe danielle completely roasted ezra in his own song

    o.... m....

    Slayed him

    o.... m....

    He's an amazing singer tho

    o.... m....

    They are amazing together

    o.... m....

    hahahahaha my exact thoughts every time that part comes on hahahahahaha <3 love this song

    o.... m....

    olivia mary 🤣

  41. l.... t....

    *This is heart warming*

  42. g.... v....

    WHAT A NICE SONG

  43. g.... v....

    I LOVD THIS

  44. S.... ....

    This new Vampire Weekend...sad to say I’m not feeling it :/

    S.... ....

    Not this song.. some of the other ones i just love, but yeah. I can't handle the country feel of this one.

    S.... ....

    Never understood what people have against country. It's like if they're told a great piece of music is country they'll stop liking it

    S.... ....

    @Numayam And there are so many elements of this song that aren't country at all.

  45. D.... M....

    If you add a banjo and a mandolin, it instantly becomes a classic country song.

  46. s.... ....

    “boy, who’s your baby?”

  47. R.... C....

    it's like a 60s style duet but with two of my favorite singers... I can't

    R.... C....

    Exactlyyy its soo good!

    R.... C....

    Yeah, inspired by June and Johnny Cash on the song 'Jackson' I think

  48. J.... M....

    This song is so good!!!! 🌍❤️

  49. A.... I....

    Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne?

  50. L.... C....

    LYRICS:

    "[Verse 1: Ezra Koenig]
    Something's happening in the country
    And the government’s to blame
    We got married in a gold rush
    And the rush has never felt the same

    [Verse 2: Danielle Haim]
    Shared a moment in a café
    Shared a kiss in pouring rain
    We got married in a gold rush
    And the sight of gold will always bring me pain

    [Chorus: Ezra Koenig & Danielle Haim]
    I don't wanna hear the rumors, please don't say it loud
    I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
    Boy, who’s your baby?
    Girl, if you don't know by now
    There's two seats on the midnight train
    The gold won't weigh us down

    [Verse 3: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
    Hanging gardens turned to desert
    All that loving turned to hate
    We got married in a gold rush
    And those wedding bells were ringing out our fate

    [Chorus: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
    I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud
    I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
    Boy, who's your baby?
    Girl, if you don't know by now
    There’s two seats on the midnight train
    The gold won’t weigh us down

    [Verse 4: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
    The rush is on to somewhere else, we're running out of time
    Everything was ours, now it’s just an empty mine
    Animals don't understand the words on the danger sign
    For them, it's just some shade from the morning shine
    I thought you might learn the language
    I thought you might learn to sing
    We were born before the gold rush
    So why can't I remember anything?
    I want to put things back together
    I wanna give, I don’t wanna take
    Time to disavow the gold rush
    And the bitterness that's flourished in its wake

    [Chorus: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
    I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud
    Please don't say it loud
    I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
    Boy, who's your baby?
    Girl, if you don't know by now
    There's two seats on the midnight train
    The gold won't weigh us down
    I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud
    Please don't say it loud
    I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
    Boy, who's your baby?
    Girl, if you don't know by now
    There's two seats on the midnight train
    The gold won't weigh us down".

    N.... J....

    Your loss

  55. N.... n....

    This song reminds me of the time I was in the semiunfinished basement of my old house. I was playing guitar and I was looking at the ceiling. I noticed a spider that built its web around the exposed lightbulb near the ceiling. It was a perfect spot to catch bugs. I thought about how people say when you die you go towards the light. I thought about how most people are naturally afraid of spiders. I thought about reincarnation. I thought about how most things that move around have mouths to eat. I thought about a giant INTERDIMENSIONAL spider . Ha Idk why thats caps. I cant spell. And going towards the light to be devoured by this resourceful universe spider. It freaks me out. I liked most of the other releases so far from this album more and im excited to buy the record eventually. Woo.

  56. g.... ....
