On the first day
Of winter
I was set to leave
With the lost awe
Of true love in my eye
The wild frontier outlaws
And thieves to find me
A mountain in the sky
There's gold
In them hills
I heard the man cry
There's gold
In them hills
For the taking
It's a one-way ticket
Down a river of lies
There's gold
In them hills
If you make it
On the last day of spring
I first saw the sea
A poor boy
With good luck on my side
Ready for riches
I rolled up my sleeve
And took my first step
Down my life
Had my wallet same
Old pocket
Sixteen dollars
Brand new shoes
Empty bottles
Sad turned daughters
What's a country boy
To do
Tell dear mother
That I miss her
But things
Are different now
There's nothing
I can do
Your dark haired son
Is now long gone
Remember me
When you stare
At the moon
I've broken my heart
Diamonds and gold
Through scandal
Through madness
Through cold
All I have left
Is this grey
In my beard
This mountain
And the stories
That I've told
There's gold
In them hills
I heard the man cry
There's gold
In them hills
For the taking
It's a one-way ticket
Down a river of lies
There's gold
In them hills
If you make it
