I'm Gonna File My Claim lyrics

I've looked around the country and I've seen it all

And what I want, I'm ready to name

It's big and strong and handsome and it's 6 feet tall

I'm gonna file my claim

I've struck a real bonanza and he's rough and rash

But what he's got, I'm ready to tame

He's worth a fancy fortune but it's not in cash

I'm gonna file my claim

I got the fever, ooh, the fever

But not for gold in the ground

I want the title to something vital

That I can throw my fences around

A girl should never hustle with a pick and pan

To dig for gold, that isn't her game

I'll find the man who's found it then I'll get that man

Who's gonna help me file my claim, I gotta file my claim

Ooh, looking for nuggets? Ooh, mush

A, be, see, D, who's gonna file me under love?

There ain't a man, not a single man

There ain't a man alive who wouldn't trade his gold

For what it takes to stay in the game

So have your fun and spend before you get too old

Who's gonna help me file my claim?

Who's gonna help me, help, help me

Who's gonna help me file my claim tonight
