Bendigo Lyrics And Chords

Bendigo is a single from Derek Ryan's latest album ''One Good Night''. [ The song was written by Derek Ryan ] The  lyrics were sent to me by Mick O'Donoghue, thanks very much Mick. Back to Derek Ryan Song Lyrics And Chords .
Bendigo Bendigo digging high digging low
There's gold there on the streets you know
If you go go go to Bendigo


In Eighteen Fifty we were told
They found the end to the rainbow
It’s out there for the brave and bold
Waiting down in Bendigo

Chorus
Bendigo Bendigo digging high digging low
There's gold there on the streets you know
If you go go go to Bendigo

The road ahead was long and tough
When me and Billy saddled up
We had finally had enough
Of drinking from the poor man's cup

Chorus

Me and Billy dug and dug
And gave it everything we could
And all we found were rocks and mud
Yeah we would fight like wild dogs would

Chorus

One bright morning we did find
A hundred pieces of sunshine
And Billy seemed to change his mind
He pulled his gun said ''That Gold's Mine ''

Another day some other soul
Will dig here for the precious gold
But all that's buried in this hole
Is the secrets Billy left below
