Gold Rush Songtext
von The Hues Corporation

Gold rush, rush for gold
Precious yellow nuggets
That are bought and sold
Man gets an ounce or two for his own
And he hides it like a dog hides a bone

Miner breakin′ his back
Got to fill up his sack
Arms and legs heavy as lead
But his family needs bread
His body is ready to drop
When he gets to the top
And they make him leave town
Before the sun goes down

Dig it up
Dig it up
They can't get enough


Gold rush, rush for gold
Precious yellow nuggets
That are bought and sold
Man gets an ounce or two for his own
And he hides it like a dog hides a bone

Dig it up
Dig it up
They can′t get enough

Men have died for gold
And their lives have been sold
What makes one part of the land
Worth more than a grain of sand
If man has a need
His need he should feed
But a part of his creed should read
Forget about greed
And hold on to the deed
Hold on to the deed to your soul

Gold rush, rush for gold
Precious yellow nuggets
That are bought and sold
Man gets an ounce or two for his own
And he hides it like a dog hides a bone.
