The mining farmer #Dead Men´s Bend
(Verse 1) Out in Dead Men’s Bend, ‘neath the scorching sun, I tend my fields, work ‘til the day is done. With my wife beside me, we build our life slow, But one day I saw a gleam in the earth’s glow. (Pre-Chorus) A shimmer of gold, hidden deep underground, A secret I hold, in silence profound. I dug and I toiled, for a treasure so rare, A fortune that’s buried with utmost care. (Chorus) In Dead Men’s Bend, I found my gold, A story of riches, brave and bold. But I keep it hidden, beneath the pig’s stall, For greedy eyes will come, and they’ll take it all. I trade some nuggets at McArthur’s bank, But I never let my guard sink. Just enough to keep my family warm, In this dusty town, weather the storm. (Verse 2) The gold’s my secret, my quiet prize, A glint in the dark, a man’s disguise. I watch my back, I know the game, In this rugged land, you stake your claim. (Pre-Chorus) Sometimes I wonder what life could be, If I took it all, set my spirit free. But I’m content with my humble way, Raising my kin, day after day. (Chorus) In Dead Men’s Bend, I found my gold, A story of riches, brave and bold. But I keep it hidden, beneath the pig’s stall, For greedy eyes will come, and they’ll take it all. I trade some nuggets at McArthur’s bank, But I never let my guard sink. Just enough to keep my family warm, In this dusty town, weather the storm. (Verse 3) Night falls over the desert, stars start to gleam, I count my blessings, hold onto my dream. The gold in the earth, my silent reserve, Keeps me steady, keeps me preserved. (Chorus) In Dead Men’s Bend, I found my gold, A story of riches, brave and bold. But I keep it hidden, beneath the pig’s stall, For greedy eyes will come, and they’ll take it all. I trade some nuggets at McArthur’s bank, But I never let my guard sink. Just enough to keep my family warm, In this dusty town, weather the storm. (Verse 4) In this dusty town, I’ve made my stand, A humble farmer with a secret hand. With my wife beside me, I face each day, In Dead Men’s Bend, I’ve found my way. (Outro) So I’ll keep on farming, with my heart held tight, My secret stash, out of sight. In Dead Men’s Bend, I’ve found my peace, A quiet life, a sweet release.
