Digging For Gold Lyrics - Singles - Chris Gaines

(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick) 

They married on a fancy yacht out on the water 

He knew she was young enough to be his daughter 

There always questions in the heart of millionaires 

Would she make heartfelt promises if the money was not there 

And he said, do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold 

Or are you just digging for gold 

Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul 

Or are you just digging for gold 

She ran his weary heart through the ringer 

And she wore him like the diamond ring around her finger 

Well, his advances and affections, she managed to avoid 

But, she got the lap of luxury and he got paranoid 

And he said, do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold 

Or are you just digging for gold 

Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul 

Or are you just digging for gold, digging for gold 

Big house, limousines, 

Fine wines, fine cuisines, 

Vale and Vegas twice a year, 

Trips to Paris on the leer 

Black Tuesday when that wall of wealth came crashing down 

Bad news day when that little queen had to give back her crown 

And he said, hey babe, we can live on love 'cause love is worth much more 

But he barely got his feelings out, she was half way to the door 

And she never even heard him cry 

Do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold 

Or are you just digging for gold 

Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul 

Or are you just digging for gold
