Big Gold Mine
Well tell me mama what am I to do There’s just no gettin’ next to you I ain’t lookin’ for a big gold mine I just want to make you mine Well tell me pretty sugar where did I go wrong I wake up in the mornin’ and I sing this song I’ve been a good man all my day Tryin’ to do like the good book say Although it may get heavy Further on up the line I’m much stronger than that levee And I think you'd find This silver city is the place to be That’s what a pretty little girl told me Rich men dance on the parlor floor Poor folk lookin’ in through the door Although it may get heavy Further on down the road I’m much stronger than the levee I’m about to let it show Well tell me darlin' what do I do now Just can’t get behind this mule and plow I don’t need no big gold mine I just want to make you mine Aus Songtexte Mania
