Hank Snow - The Gold Rush Is Over lyrics

rate me

(Chorus) Oh! the gold rush is over so honey bye bye Stake out your claim now on some other guy I've wined you and dined you 'til my money is gone But the gold rush is over and the bum's rush is on Now when I had the money honey, things were just fine You spent my money like I was a mine But now you mistreat me 'cause my money is gone So gold-diggin' Mama, you can start moving' on You shoveled out the sweet talk when the pay dirt was big Now all you shovel out is just a dirty dig Well, stop digging honey 'cause you're wasting your time This old gravy train is at the end of the line (Repeat Chorus) You've been out prospecting all around on the side But this old mule now, has had his last ride So start walkin' woman 'cause your grubstake is gone The gold rush is over and the bum's rush is on (Repeat Chorus)
