Mine, Mine, Mine - David Ogden Stiers, Mel Gibson

The gold of Cortas

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 every 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

Hey, nonny nonny

Ho, nonny nonny

Oh, how I love it Hey, nonny nonny

Ho, nonny nonny

Riches for cheap

Hey, nonny nonny

Ho, nonny nonny

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

Will be all a-twitter

The king will reward me He’ll knight me, no, lord me!

It’s mine, mine, mind

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, lands

Don’t be shirking, lands

Mine, boys, mind

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!

So go for the gold

We know which is here

All the riches here

From this minute

This land and what’s in it is mine!

Dig and dig and diggety-dig!

Hey, nonny, nonny, nonny, it’s mine!
