A Campfire Song

	A lie to say, "O my mountain has coal veins and beds to dig
	500 men with axes and they all dig for me"
	A lie to say, "O my river where many fish do swim
	Half of the catch is mine when you haul your nets in"
	Oh no never will he believe that
	His greed has a blinding ray
	No devil or redeemer will cheat him
	He'll take his gold to where he's lying cold
	A lie to say, "O my mine gave a diamond big as a fist
	But with every gem in his pocket, the jewels he has missedâ€
	A lie to say, "O my garden is growing taller by the day
	He only eats the best and tosses the rest awayâ€
	Oh no never will he believe that
	His greed has a blinding ray
	No devil or redeemer can cheat him
	He'll take his gold where he's lying cold
	Six deep in the grave
	(His oldest pain and fear in life)
	Something is out of reach
	Something he wanted
	(There'll not be time)
	(His oldest pain and fear in life)
	Something is out of reach
	He's being taunted
	(There'll not be time, oh no)
	Something is out of reach
	(Hey, hey)
	That he can't beg or steal
	(Nor can he buy)
	A lie to say "O my forest has trees that block the sun
	And when I cut them down I don't answer to anyone"
	No, no, no, never will he believe that
	His greed has a blinding ray
	No devil or redeemer can cheat him
	Take his gold where he's lying cold
	La la la la la la
	La la la la la la
	Oh, la la la, la la la la la la la
	Love me, love me, love me, love me now

	A lie to say, " O my mountain has coal veins and beds to dig
