Dutchman's Gold by Walter Brennan

In the Arizona Desert
Stands a giant of earth and stone
Mighty Superstition Mountain
With it's mystery and it's gold.

A miner, out prospectin'
Found his fortune and his fame
Found the gold of Superstition
Just plain Dutchman was his name.

CHORUS:

Oh, the Dutchman was a gambler
And a party was his fun
But he kept his precious secret
never trusting anyone.

And in death, he still is laughing
For the grave his secret holds
And the mighty Superstition
Keeps the Dutchman's yellow gold.

Yellow Gold

Mighty Superstition mountain
Standing high and all alone
Once, you told your precious secret
And you gave your soft, pure gold.

'Pache indians know the story
And in legend there is told
Many takes of the beginning
When you gave your yellow gold.

Now, I'd like to dream and wonder
If someday you'll give again
The bounty of your Treasure
Shinin' yellow, in the Sun.

CHORUS:

And in death he still is laughing
For the grave his secret holds
And the mighty Superstition
Keeps the Dutchman's yellow gold.

Yellow Gold
Yellow Gold
Yellow Gold
Dutchman's Gold....

Re: Treasure Related Songs!

Fifteen men on a dead man’s chest

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Drink and the devil be done for the rest

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum



The mate was fixed by the bos’n’s pike

The bos’n’ brained with a marlin spike and

Cookey’s throat was marked belike It

Had been gripped by fingers ten and

There they lay all good dead men like

Break o’ day in a boozing ken__

Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of rum




Fifteen men of a whole ship’s list

Yo Ho Ho and a bottle of rum

Dead and be damned and the rest gone whist!

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum



The skipper lay with his nob in gore where the

Scullion’s axe his cheek had shore

And the scullion he was stabbed times four and

There he lay and the soggy skies

Dripped all day in up-staring eyes at

Murk sunset and at foul sur-prise

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum


Fifteen men of ‘em stiff and stark

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Ten of the crew had the murder mark

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum



‘Twas a cutlass swipe or and ounce of lead or a

Yawning hole in a battered head

and the scuppers glut with a yawning red and

There they lay aye damn my eyes

All lookouts clapped on par - a - dise all

Souls bound just con – tra – ri - wise

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum


Fifteen men of ‘em good and true

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Every man Jack could ha’ sailed with old Pew

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum



There was chest on chest of Spanish gold with a

Ton of plate in the middle hold

And the cabins riot with stuff un told As

They lay there that had took the plum

With a sightless glare and their lips struck dumb

While we shared all by the rule of thumb

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum


Fifteen men of a dead man’s chest

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Drink and the devil had done for the rest

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum



We wrapped ‘em all in a mains’l tight with

Twice ten turns of a hausers bight

And we heaved ‘em over and out of sight with a

Yo heave ho and fare you well

And a sullen plunge in a sullen swell

Ten fathoms deep on the road to hell

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

An old Pink Floyd song off of the Obscured by Clouds album:

"The Gold's in the......."

Come on, my friends,
Let's make for the hills.
They say there's gold but I'm looking for thrills.
You can get your hands on whatever we find,
Because I'm only coming along for the ride.
Well, you go your way,
I'll go mine.
I don't care if we get there on time.
Everybody's searching for something, they say.
I'll get my kicks on the way.
Over mountains, across seas,
Who knows what will be waiting for me?
I could sail forever to strange sounding names.
Faces of people and places don't change.
All I have to do is just close my eyes
To see the seagulls wheeling on those far distant skies.
All I want to tell you,
All I want to say is count me in on the journey.
Don't expect me to stay.

Everyone would be in love with me.
