Mine, Mine, Mine Lyrics by David Ogden Stiers, Mel Gibson

Pocahontas (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

1995

[RATCLIFFE]
The gold of Cortés
The jewels of Pizarro
Will seem like mere trinkets
By this time tomorrow
The gold we find here
Will dwarf them by far
Oh, with all ya got in ya, boys
Dig up Virginia, boys
Mine, boys, mine ev'ry mountain
And dig, boys, dig 'til ya drop
Grab a pick, boys
Quick, boys
Shove in a shovel
Uncover those lovely
Pebbles that sparkle and shine
It's gold and it's mine, mine, mine
[ENGLISH SETTLERS]
Dig and dig and dig and diggety
Dig and dig and dig and diggety
[WIGGINS, RATCLIFFE, Both, (ENGLISH SETTLERS)]
Hey nonny nonny, hiy nonny nonny (Dig and dig and)
Oh, how I love it! (Dig and diggety)
Hey nonny nonny, hiy nonny nonny (Dig and dig and)
Riches for cheap! (Dig and diggety)
Hey nonny nonny, hiy nonny nonny (Dig and dig and)
There'll be heaps of it (Dig and diggety)
And I'll be on top of the heap!
(Dig and dig and diggety-dig!)
[RATCLIFFE]
My rivals back home
It's not that I'm bitter
But think how they'll squirm
When they see how I glitter
The ladies at court
Will be all a-twitter
The king will reward me
He'll knight me—no, lord me!
It's mine, mine, mine
For the taking
It's mine, boys
Mine me that gold
With those nuggets, dug, it's
Glory they'll gimme
My dear friend, King Jimmy
Will probably build me a shrine
[RATCLIFFE & HIGGINS]
When all of the gold...
[RATCLIFFE]
Is mine!
[ENGLISH SETTLERS]
Dig and dig and dig and diggety
Dig and dig and dig and diggety-dig
[JOHN SMITH]
All of my life, I have searched for a land
Like this one
A wilder, more challenging country
I couldn't design
Hundreds of dangers await
And I don't plan to miss one
In a land I can claim
A land I can tame
The greatest adventure is mine
[RATCLIFFE]
Keep on working, lads
[JOHN SMITH]
Mine
[RATCLIFFE / ENGLISH SETTLERS]
Don't be shirking, lads
Mine, boys, mine (Find a mother lode)
Mine me that (Then find another load)
Gold (Dig, dig and diggety)
Beautiful gold (Dig, dig for that gold)
[RATCLIFFE & ENGLISH SETTLERS]
Make this island my land
[RATCLIFFE / ENGLISH SETTLERS]
Make the mounds big, boys (Dig)
I'd help you to dig, boys (Dig)
But I've got this crick in me spine
[JOHN SMITH]
This land we behold
[RATCLIFFE]
This beauty untold
[JOHN SMITH]
A man can be bold
[RATCLIFFE]
It all can be sold
[ENGLISH SETTLERS]
So go for-
[RATCLIFFE / ENGLISH SETTLERS]
The gold (We know which is here)
Is (All the riches here)
Mine! (From this minute this)
Mine! (Land and what's in it is)
Mine! (Dig and dig and diggety-dig!)
[ENGLISH SETTLERS]
Hey nonny nonny nonny, it's mine!
