Song language: English
Digging for Gold |
| I was kicking stones down by the river |
| Listening to the call of the wild |
| When you approached from the other direction |
| I sang you the song of the motherless child |
| You could say I’m a starry-eyed dreamer |
| You could say I’m a troubadour of old |
| You could say I’m a soldier of fortune |
| (high plains drifter) |
| Or a prospector digging for gold |
| Outside the castle a lady-in-waiting |
| Had her application denied |
| She said, «That's a bitter pill to swallow |
| Just when I was hitting my stride» |
| I saw a man who took to the high wire |
| Looked like he was dying to please |
| He waved to the crowd below |
| Then he fell with the greatest of ease |
| I’ve seen spirit horses with blood on their saddles |
| Angels with blue white wings |
| Or maybe I’m a trickster |
| And I’ve actually seen none of these things |
| I’ll give you twenty-five dollars |
| And then I’ll give you twenty-five more |
| If you can answer this question |
| What am I talking to you for? |
