Mine, Mine, Mine Lyrics & Tabs by Jonathan Young
Mine, Mine, Mine
guitar chords lyrics
x2
The gold of Cortes
The jewels of Pizarro
Will seem like mere trinkets
By this time tomorrow
The gold we find here
Will dwarf them by far
So, with all ya got in ya, boys
Dig up Virginia, boys
Mine, boys, mine ev'ry mountain
And dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop
Grab a pick, boys
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel
Uncover those lovely
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel
Uncover those lovely
Pebbles that sparkle and shine
It's gold and it's mine, mine, mine
x2
Oh, how I love it!
Riches for Cheap!
There'll be heaps of it ...
And I'll be on top of the heap!
My rivals back home
It's not that I'm bitter
But think how they'll squirm
When they see how I glitter!
The ladies at court
The king will reward me
He'll knight me ... no, lord me!
It's mine, mine, mine
For the taking
It's mine, boys
Mine me that gold!
With those nuggets dug its
Glory they'll gimme
My dear friend, King Jimmy
Will probably build me a shrine
When all of the gold is mine
All of my life, I have searched for a land
Like this one
A wilder, more challenging country
I couldn't design
Hundreds of dangers await
And I don't plan to miss one
In a land I can claim
A land I can tame
The greatest adventure is mine!
Keep on working, lads
Don't be shirking, lads
Find a mother lode
Then go mine me that gold
Beautiful gold
Make this island, my land
Make the mounds big, boys
I'd help you to dig, boys
But I've got this crick in me spine
This land we behold ...
This beauty untold ...
A man can be bold!
It all can be sold!
Gold...
And the gold
Is ...
Mine!
In sixteen hundred seven
We sail the open sea
For glory, God, and gold
And The Virginia Company
For the New World is like heaven
And we'll all be rich and free
Or so we have been told
By The Virginia Company
Or so we have been told
By The Virginia Company
