lyrics

I'm working my claim in Chewton
Underneath a big white gum
I must have panned a ton of sand
Now it's time to have some fun
Well I've raised some cane in Castlemaine,
Been to Daylesford and Ballarat too
But I'm gonna go go go the Bendigo
Before the night is through

I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
Find the gold bug that bit me
I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
The goldfields' capitol city

Swinging my pick in a mine,
I'm like a steam driven digger
Running my horse under the Souther Cross,
Trying to make my gold pile bigger
Well I've got a little girl in Kingston
Who knows how to spend my money
But I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
And find my gold digging honey

I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
Find the gold bug that bit me
I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
The goldfields' capitol city

One of these days I'll strike it rich
And lose the ties that bind me
I'm gonna throw one sack of gold over my back
And drag a couple more behind me
I'll walk into the bank,
They'll weigh it out by the pound
Then I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
And buy the whole damn town

I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
Find the gold bug that bit me
I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
The goldfields' capitol city
I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
Find the gold bug that bit me
I'm gonna go go go to Bendigo
The goldfields' capitol city
The goldfields' capitol city
Working in gold mine going down down
Oops about to slip down
Working in gold mine going down down
Oops about to slip down
