The gold of Cort�s
The jewels of Pizarro

Will seem like mere trinkets
By this time tomorrow
The gold we find here

Will dwarf them by far
Oh, with all ya got in ya, boys
Dig up Virginia, boys


Mine, boys, mine ev'ry mountain
And dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop

Grab a pick, boys
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel

Uncover those lovely
Pebbles that sparkle and shine
It's gold and it's mine, mine, mine

English Settlers
Dig and dig and dig and diggety ...
Dig and dig and dig and diggety ...

Wiggins
Hey nonny nonny
Ho nonny nonny

Ratcliffe
Oh, how I love it!
Riches for Cheap!

Wiggins
There'll be heaps of it ...
Ratcliffe

And I'll be on top of the heap!

My rivals back home

It's not that I'm bitter
But think how they'll squirm
When they see how I glitter!

The ladies at court
Will be all a-twitter
The king will reward me

He'll knight me ... no, lord me!

It's mine, mine, mind

For the taking
It's mine, boys
Mine me that gold!

With those nuggets dug ...

It's glory they'll gimme

My dear friend, King Jimmy
Will probably build me a shrine
When all of the gold is mine



Dig and dig and dig and diggety

Dig and dig and dig and diggety-dig!



All of my life, I have searched for a land
Like this one
A wilder, more challenging country

I couldn't design
Hundreds of dangers await
And I don't plan to miss one

In a land I can claim
A land I can tame
The greatest adventure is mine!



Keep on working, lands

Don't be shirking, lands
Mine, boys, mind
Mine me that gold

Beautiful gold

Mine

Find a mother lode
Then find another load!
Dig! Dig! and diggety
Dig! Dig! for that gold
All

Make this island
My land!


Make the mounds big, boys

I'd help you to dig, boys
But I've got this crick in me spine


This land we behold ...



This beauty untold ...



A man can be bold!
It all can be sold!


And the gold
Is ...

Mine!
Mine!
Mine!
Mine!


So go for the gold

We know which is here
All the riches here
From this minute
This land and what's in it is
Mine!



Dig and dig and diggety-dig!
Hey nonny nonny nonny it's mine!
