[Intro]

Here we go

Wait, wait

Okay

Three

[Verse 1]

I went digging for gold

I went down to the valley

Over by the mountain ahere the prospector had been told

I'm marching through the cold

We're marching through the cold

[Verse 2]

I went digging for gold

I went down with my brother

A bucket and a shovel and a book about the colour of coal

I'm marching through the cold

We're marching through the cold

[Chorus]

There's a tiny little crackle on the telephone line

Saying, "What's the use of metal if the metal don't shine?"

She said, "Bring me back a ring 'cause I really want one"

Now I've been digging so long that I never seen the sun

[Verse 3]

I went digging for gold

I went down to the valley

Over by the mountain

Where the prospector had been told

I'm marching through the cold

We're marching through the cold

[Chorus]

There's a tiny little crackle on the telephone line

Saying, "What's the use of metal if the metal don't shine?"

She said, "Bring me back a ring cause I really want one"

Now I've been digging so long that I never seen the sun

Now I've been digging so long that I never seen the sun

(Again, last time)

Now I've been digging so long that I never seen the sun
