bringin' in the gold - howard crockett lyrics

i was born in a little mine town up in maricopa county
i grew up in a big white house with my ma and my six brothers
and i had me a big horse to ride
ma had them big carpets on the floor
i guess a boy just couldn’t ask for more

it was on a sat-rday night, that old doc haley rolled by
i heard him tell ma somebody had robbed the mine
that two men had died i heard ma ask him
“doc, do you know who they be?”
as doc turned away, i heard him say, “it’s too dark to see”
before long i heard the sound of horses, my six brothers come in
they joined ma at the piano, all begin to sing

bringing in the gold, bringing in the gold
we have found rejoice in bringing in the gold
bringing in the gold, bringing in the gold
we have found rejoice in bringing in the gold

one stormy night, there came a knock on the door
and i saw something that, well, i had never seen before
i saw the badge of the law and, i heard that tall one say
“we come for your ma, boy, gonna take her away”
and i followed behind, ’cause they took my brothers too
to that old hangin’ tree, i guess that’s when i knew
and there were tears in my eyes, as i heard that preacher say
“before you go, would anyone like to pray?”
and my ma said, “boys, let’s sing”

bringing in the gold, bringing in the gold
we have found rejoice in bringing in the gold
bringing in the gold, bringing in the gold
we have found rejoice in bringing in the gold
bringing in the gold, bringing in the gold
we have found rejoice in bringing in the gold
bringing in the gold, bringing in the gold
we have found rejoice in bringing in the gold
