The Old Miner Lyrics – The Contours
Singer: The Contours
Title: The Old Miner
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
There was an old miner with a mule named Diana
His name was Phil Morris, well bless my soul
And one swing day, as he went along his way
He made a lucky strike and he found some old gold
He said, “You know what I’m gonna do?”
“I’m gonna do everything I ever wanted to”
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
So he took old Diana on a big ocean liner
‘The Flip Top Bucks’ {?} was the name on the side
He told Captain Viceroy, “You better be a nice boy
And take me and Diana on a long ocean ride”
“‘Cause I got enough gold to pay you
And do everything I ever wanted to”
(Said the commander)
(“Welcome aboard”)
He asked him not to fail him
He wanted him to sail him
All around the world ’til the gold’s spent
He wants to go to places
See a cool ole’ aces {?}
The Alpine mountains and visit parliament
He wants to dock on a new port
Ride on a camel
And do the cow mill {?} and hit the ray {?}
Go see his ole’ pal Mel, his ole’ gal Sal
And buy a crush-proof pack for his ole’ mule’s back
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
So now he’s back in a one-room shack
Ain’t nobody there but him and his mule
If you ever pass by and you wanna know why
He’s just sitting there, being there cool
Don’t you know what he’s gonna tell you
He’s done everything he ever wanted to
(He’s done everything he ever wanted to) Woah, yeah
(He’s done everything he ever wanted to) The old miner
(He’s done everything he ever wanted to) Lucky finder
(He’s done everything he ever wanted to) ‘Round the world
(He’s done everything he ever wanted to) Had a girl
(He’s done everything he ever wanted to)
