| I’ve looked around the country and I’ve seen it all
|
| And what I want I’m ready to name.
|
| It’s big and strong and handsome and it’s 6 feet tall.
|
| I’m gonna file my claim.
|
| I’ve struck a real bonanza and he’s rough and rash,
|
| But what he’s got I’m ready to tame.
|
| He’s worth a fancy fortune but it’s not in cash,
|
| I’m gonna file my claim!
|
| I got the fever, ooh, the fever, but not for gold in the ground.
|
| I want the title to something vital that I can throw my fences around.
|
| A girl should never hustle with a pick and pan to dig for gold,
|
| That isn’t her game.
|
| I’ll find the man who found it then I’ll get that man,
|
| Who’s gonna help me file my claim?
|
| I’m gonna file my claim.
|
| Ooh, looking for nuggets? |
| Ooh, mush!
|
| A, B, C, D, who’s gonna file me under love?
|
| There ain’t a man, not a single man!
|
| There ain’t a man alive who wouldn’t trade his gold
|
| For what it takes to stay in the game.
|
| So have you fun and spend before you get too old.
|
| Who’s gonna help me file my claim?
|
| Who’s gonna help me, help, help me,
|
| Who’s gonna help me file my claim.tonight. |
