A lie to say "Oh, my mountain has coal veins and beds to dig

Five hundred men with axes and they all dig for me"

A lie to say "Oh, my river where many fish do swim
Half of your catch is mine when you haul your nets in"
C G C G D
Oh no, never will he believe that his greed is a blinding ray
C G C
No devil or redeemer will cheat him
G Em D (First ending: C D G)
He'll take his gold to where he's lying cold
A lie to say "Oh, my mine gave a diamond big as a fist"
But for every gem in his pocket, the jewels he has missed
A lie to say "Oh, my garden is growing taller by the day"
He only eats the best and tosses the rest away

C Gmaj9 G/B C G C
Oh no, hey hey,
(Something is out of reach, that he can't beg or steal)

And when I cut them down I don't answer to anyone"
