Hank Williams Jr. - Gibbonsville Gold Lyrics




My name is bill harlan i'm a god fearing man
From the lost rebel army
A tennessee calvary man
From shilo to nashville we
Made our last stand
When the battles were over
Everything we had was gone with the wind
But i still had my family and
A hope and a dream and i heard of gold fever
And the rocky mountain streams
So we took what we had
And some gold digging gear
And we headed for a new
Life on the northwest frontier
Montana territory where the winters are cold
The lands full of game and the
Creeks are full of gold
Just west of the mountains is
A town they call gibbonsville
You can sure get gold fever
You can damn sure get killed
But i staked my claims, i was raring to go
I've made up my mind and i
Set out to find the gibbonsville (d) gold


Oh, you find just a little
Just enough to get by
Aww, you dig and you dig
And you start wondering why
There's a whole lot more down there
I don't have to be told
I've made up my mind and i'm
Gonna find that gibbonsville gold

Every morning at daylight with a
Pick and a pan
Keep an eye out for the blackfeet
Keep a rifle near hand
Back shooters and grizzlies
Better stay alert all the time
Cause the only law here in this wild
Country is the gun and the knife
In the year of our lord, eighteen sixty-nine
I lost my dear son to a cave-in at the mine
Yes i know he's gone please
God rest his soul
So many have died trying to
Find this damned gibbonsville gold

Yeah, you find just a little
Just enough to get by
Aww, you dig and you dig
And you start wondering why
Then someone finds a nugget
Just as big as your thumb
And we all go hard at it from sun until sun
Yeah i got to find it, that main mother load
I've made up my mind and i
Swear to find that gibbonsville gold

There's a whole lot more down there
My share of that main mother load
I've made up my mind and i
Swear to find the gibbonsville gold
