Started in the old south

i brought it to the new west

sold it for a dry claim

i bought it back the hard way

i've got a mine thats fine

isn't it the best one yet?

i bought it in '49

i've got a mine thats fine

heard about your bad fall

i guess its just the rock's fault

i bet you need some old south

i'll sell it for your gold teeth

i've got a mind thats fine

i swear its the best one yet

i bought it in '49

i've got a mind thats fine

she was just a moaner

she was never saved

bruises in my stomach fight

i fed it to my engine

i've got a mind thats fine

i swear it's the best one yet

i bought it in '49

i've got a mine thats fine

i've got a mine thats fine

i've got a mine thats fine

i've got a mine thats fine

i've got a mine thats fine.
