The miner goes down into the mine And comes out empty-handed And they send him right back down in again And say, "Dig a little deeper" 'Cause there's women all over this world Just waitin' to say "I love you", but they got to have stones Bright, shiny stones And the jeweler tells a young man He's sorry he cannot help him "You cannot pay me with the holes in your empty pockets You have to dig a little deeper" "Mister Jeweler, you don't understand", said the young man "I got a woman waitin' to say she loves me I got to have stones Bright, shiny stones" It goes on and on and on So if you got a woman and you want to please her And if you got a woman and you want to keep her Well, every woman's got a weakness So if you want her lovin' Then give your Miss Sweetness what she wants You better give her stones A young woman whispered me into an alley one night And she glowed in the darkness She said, "Free me from this bondage and I'll give you all that shines" I said, "You'll have to dig a little deeper 'Cause there's women like you all over this world Whose hearts have died 'cause they lied and said 'I love you' for stones" Bright, shiny stones And still it goes on and on and on So if you got a woman and you want to please her And if you got a woman and you want to keep her Well, every woman's got a weakness So if you want her lovin' You better give your Miss Sweetness what she wants You better give her stones Precious, precious, precious stones Precious, precious, precious, precious stones The miner goes down into the mine And comes out empty-handed And they send him right back down in again And say, "Dig a little deeper"
