Pavement - My First Mine lyrics

started in the old south

i brought it to the new west


sold it for a dry claim

i bought it back the hard way



i've got a mine that's fine

isn't it the best one yet?

i bought it in forty nine

i've got a mine thats fine



heard about your bad fall

i guess it's just the rock's fault

i bet you need some old south

i'll sell it for your gold teeth



i've got a mind that's fine

i swear it's the best one yet

i bought it in forty nine

i've got a mind that's fine



she was just a Moaner

she was never saved

bruises in my stomach fight

i fed it to my engine



i've got a mind that's fine

i swear it's the best one yet

i bought it in '49

i've got a mine that's fine



i've got a mine that's fine
