Ten thousand feet above the deep dark waters
There's a land like I ain't never seen
There's silver and gold in Mr. Wildrose's garden
Shining on hillside for me.
I said I'm on the East of Kentucky
Said farewell to family at home
And I'm here to risk, to seek my fortune
Figure I can make it long!
Chorus:
Cause it ain't no gold
And it ain't no roses
It ain't no sunshine
And it ain't no rain
Only dark days, frozen troubles
Still my last .. down this day
Still my last... day by day!

I fell in with a stranger in Kansas City
Said, "son, now I'm a union man
I have a fine team of mules and... for the winner
Traveler, I sure can use a hand!"
His ..broke on the Western prairie
To them red rock hills I was bons
Now I'm digging for gold in an old rock current
Nothing worth I found!
Chorus:
Cause it ain't no gold
And it ain't no roses
It ain't no sunshine
And it ain't no rain
Only dark days, frozen troubles
Still my last .. down this day
Still my last... day by day!
Come on now, baby, can you save my soul?
Driving all across the country, gotta find that goal
One more shot of whiskey before I ask your name
For 64 dollars, got a brand new plan
Meeting on Frisco, gonna climb my favourite town
...on the mountain, we ain't coming down
Take a look around, see what you can find!
I hope you like silver, we got a brand new plan!
Chorus:
Whether it ain't no gold
And it ain't no roses
It ain't no sunshine,
I don't care!
Goodbye darkness
So long troubles
