Folks been diggin' into the ground

Won't be stoppin' until it's found

They might dig all the way to china

That would be just fine

You understand what i'm sayin'

They don't wanna work

They're hopin' and a prayin' for

Pay dirt





Folks are goin' to the rivers

And siftin' in the sand

All they've been findin'

Is the lids of tin cans

Of course it doesn't stop 'em

There's big bucks sellin' junk

Then turn around and buy it

For more than it's worth

They gamble and they bargain for

Pay dirt, pay dirt, pay dirt

Pay dirt





Well, i heard tell that some folks

Won't fall in love

Unless the one they's courtin'

Got more than enough

Well, nothin' gets the heart a goin'

Faster than a wad of dough

Unless it's the price of

A tease and a flirt

And promises of fistfuls

Pay dirt, pay dirt

Pay dirt
