lyrics

Moses wiped the sweat from his eyes
Rubbing dirt across his face
The wrinkles formed in webs about his smile
Yellow toothed and out of place

You got to earn it, yearn it
Working pick in hand
When you're a gold digger with a fever
You do all that you can
To be a self made man
To be a self made man

Moses had a wife and three kids
Before he took the mountain train
Before the dreams of wealth and gold
Lodged inside of his brain

You got to earn it, yearn it
Working pick in hand
When you're a gold digger with a fever
You do all that you can
To be a self made man
To be a self made man
