There s Gold In Them Hills lyrics
On the first day of winter
I was set to leave
With the lost awe of true love in my eye
The wild frontier outlaws and thieves
To find me a mountain in the sky
There s gold in them hills
I heard the man cry
There s gold in them hills
For the taking
It s a one-way ticket down a river of lies
There s gold in them hills
If you make it
On the last day of spring
I first saw the sea
A poor boy with good luck on my side
Ready for riches
I rolled up my sleeve
And took my first step down my life
Had my wallet same old pocket
Sixteen dollars brand new shoes
Empty bottles sad turned daughters
What s a country boy to do
Tell dear mother that I miss her
But things are different now
There s nothing I can do
Your dark haired son is now long gone
Remember me
When you stare at the moon
I ve broken my heart
Diamonds and gold
Through scandal through madness through cold
All I have left is this grey in my beard
This mountain and the stories that I ve told
There s gold in them hills
I heard the man cry
There s gold in them hills
For the taking
It s a one-way ticket down a river of lies
There s gold in them hills
If you make it
