A Campfire Song lyrics

A lie to say, `O my mountain has coal veins and beds to dig.
500 men with axes and they all dig for me.` A lie to ssay, `O my
river where mant fish do swim, half of the catch is mine when you haul
your nets in.` Never will he believe that his greed is a blinding
ray. No devil or redeemer will cheat him. He`ll take his gold to
where he`s lying cold.
A lie to say, `O my mine gave a diamond as big as a fist.`
But with every gem in his pocket, the jewels he has missed. A lie to
say, `O my garden is growing taller by the day.` He only eats the
best and tosses the rest away. Never will he be believe that his
greed is a blinding ray. No devil or redeemer can cheat him. he`ll
take his gold to where he`s lying cold. Six deep in the grave.
Something is out of reach
something he wanted
something is out of reach
he`s being taunted
something is out of reach
that he can` beg or steal nor can he buy
his oldest pain
and fear in life
there`ll not be time
his oldest pain
and fear in life
there`ll not be time
A lie to say `O my forest has trees that block the sun and
when I cut them down I don`t answer to anyone.` No, no, never will he
believe that his greed is a blinding ray no devil or redeemer can
cheat
him. He`ll take his gold where he`s lying cold
