Charley Crockett - Big Gold Mine Lyrics

Well tell me now mama what am I to do
There's just no getting next to you
I ain't looking for a big gold mine
I just wanna make you mine

Tell me now sugar where did I go wrong
I wake up in the morning and I sing this song
I've been a good man all my days
Trying to do like the good books says

Although it may get heavy
Further on up the line
I'm much stronger than that levy
And I think you'll find...

That silver city it's the place to be
That's what a pretty little girl told me
Rich men dance on a parlor floor
Poor folks looking in through the door

Although it may get heavy
Further on down the road
I'm much stronger than that levy
And I'm about to let it show

Well tell me darling what do I do now
Just can't get behind this mule and plow
I don't need no big gold mine
I just wanna make you mine
