Lyrics The Old Settler's Song - The Brothers Four
I've
traveled
all
over
this
country
Prospectin'
and
diggin'
for
gold.
I've
tunneled,
hydraulic-ed,
and
cradled,
And
I
have
been
frequently
sold.
And
I
have
been
frequently
so-o-old,
And
I
have
been
frequently
sold.
I've
tunneled,
hydraulic-ed,
and
cradled,
And
I
have
been
frequently
sold.
For
each
man
who
got
rich
by
mining,
Perceiving
that
hundreds
grew
poor,
I
made
up
my
mind
to
try
farming:
The
only
pursuit
that
was
sure.
So
rollin'
my
grub
in
my
blanket
I
left
all
my
tools
on
the
ground.
I
started
one
mornin'
to
shag
it
For
the
country
they
call
Puget
Sound.
For
the
country
they
call
Puget
So-o-ound,
For
the
country
they
call
Puget
Sound.
I
started
one
mornin'
to
shag
it
For
the
country
they
call
Puget
Sound.
Arriving
flat
broke
in
midwinter,
I
found
it
enveloped
with
fog
And
covered
all
over
with
timber,
Thick
as
hair
on
the
back
of
a
dog.
As
I
looked
at
the
prospects
so
gloomy,
The
tears
trickled
over
my
face
And
I
thought
that
my
travels
had
brought
me
To
the
end
of
the
jumpin'
off
place.
To
the
end
of
the
jumpin'
off
pla-a-ace,
To
the
end
of
the
jumpin'
off
place.
I
thought
that
my
travels
had
brought
me
To
the
end
of
the
jumpin'
off
place.
But
now
as
I
look
all
around
me,
Observing
the
world
and
its
shells,
I
think
of
my
happy
condition,
Surrounded
by
acres
of
clams.
Surrounded
by
acres
of
cla-a-ams,
Surrounded
by
acres
of
clams.
I
think
of
my
happy
condition,
Surrounded
by
acres
of
clams.
Surrounded
by
acres
of
clams,
By
acres
of
clams.
