Gold Miner Dream

Palm trees and gold dust 

such a sight for eastern eyes

1849ers a little late to cross the great divide

God am I tired



I've tried to be a better man

my faith has been run over

don't wanna be let down again

this is my gold miner dream



After the guilded age you search for something new

I hope that California feels like coming

coming at home to you

tell me the truth



I've tried to be a better man

my faith has been run over

don't wanna be let down again

this is my gold miner dream



I've tried to be a better man

my faith has been run over

I'm ready to go underground



Am I just looking hear in vain???

burned by the sun

and don't you let me down

stay we can make it home



I've tried to be a better man

my faith has been run over

don't wanna be let down again

this is my gold miner dream



I've tried to be a better man

my faith has been run over

I'm ready to go underground
