Mine, Mine, Mine - From "Pocahontas"

Lyrics

The gold of Cortés
 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
 Dig and dig and dig and diggety
 Dig and dig and dig and diggety
 Oh, how I love it!
 Riches for cheap!
 There'll be heaps of it
 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
 The king will reward me
 He'll knight me ... no, lord me!
 It's mine, mine, mine
 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, lads
 Don't be shirking, lads
 Mine, boys, mine
 Mine me that gold
 Beautiful gold
 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!
 Hey nonny nonny nonny it's mine!
