Letra de Californy Gold

[Verso 1]
There’s a girl living high in the city
And she’s living in luxury untold
How I fell for her lying twas a pity
Now she’s living on my Californy gold
Just last week I think she bought a mansion
And a coon skin coat to keep out the cold
And unless I am sadly mistaken
She bought it with my Californy gold

[Verso 2]
And her room by her cozy little fire side
There I wow many hours so bold
And it didn’t take her along with her kisses
To set me free from my Californy gold
We would sit there at night on her sofa
While many sad tales did unfold
Every word that she spoke cost me money
And I paid it with my Californy gold

[Verso 3]
And tis now I’m back in the mountains
With my pick and my shovel in my hand
By this song you shall know what I’m doing
Oh I’m warning yes I’m warning every man
There is frost on my face this fair morning
And my little old log cabin is so cold
I would be quite a wealthy man this morning
If I’d only kept my Californy gold

[Verso 4]
Listen close all you men with your fortunes
Watch your step keep your money at home
Unless you lose every cent of your bankroll
Just as I lost my Californy gold
