Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There is this old woman
She lives down the road
You can often find her
Kneeling inside of her hole
[Verse 2]
And I'll often ask her
Are you lookin' for a motherlode?
Huh? No
No, my child
This is not my desire
And then she said
[Verse 3]
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
(I'm diggin' for fire)
[Verse 4]
This is this old man who spent so much of his life sleepin'
That he is able to keep awake for the rest of his years
He resides
On a beach
In a town
Where I am goin' to live
[Verse 5]
And I often ask her
Are you lookin' for the motherlode?
Huh? No
No, my child
This is not my desire
And then he said
[Verse 6]
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
(Fire, fire)
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
Fire, fire
[Verse 7]
I'm diggin' for fire
I'm diggin' for fire
(Fire, for fire)
For fire
(For fire, for fire)
For fire
I'm diggin' for (Dig)
