I've looked around the country
and I've seen it all,
and what I want, I'm ready to name!
It's big and strong and handsome
and it's 6-feet tall,
I'm gonna file my claim!

I struck a real bonanza
and he's rough and rash,
but what he's got, I'm ready to tame,
he's worth a fancy fortune, but it's not in cash,
I'm gonna file my claim!

I got the fever, ooooh the fever,
but not for gold in the ground!
I want to tackle to something vital
that I can throw my fences around.
A gal should never hustle with a pic and pan,
to dig for gold, that isn't her game,
I'll find the man who found it,
then I'll get that man!
Who's gonna help me file my claim!
I gotta file my claim!
Ooooohhhhh, lookin' for nuggets?
Ooooohhhhh, mush!
A-B-C-D, Who's gonna file me
under love, love!
Not a man, not a single man!

There ain't a man alive
who wouldn't trade his gold
for what it takes to stay in the game.
So have fun and spend it
before you get too old,
who's gonna help me, Oooh, help me, HELP!
Help me! Who's gonna help me file my claim
...tonight?
