Paint Your Wagon movie - Best Things lyrics
rate me<br>
Clint:<br>
The earth is pure muck<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Muck's a good thing<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
And oozing with mud<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Mud is just fine<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
It's drownin' in bog<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Bog is good luck<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
And crawlin' with crud<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Crud's a good sign<br>
The poor, they got hope<br>
The rich can buy soap<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
The rainbows, they got a pot of<br>
And I, ain't got a spot of<br>
A few feet down, there's a lot of<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Just waitin' to buy, tobacco and rye<br>
From now till I die<br>
<br>
Both:<br>
The best things in life are dirty<br>
And nothing in life is...<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Better to owe than dab in gold<br>
<br>
Both:<br>
The best things in life are filthy dirty<br>
Hunks of gold, gold, gold<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
There's more than just gold<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Gold is enough<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
That's buried below<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Beautiful gold<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
There's seed in the ground<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Lovable gold<br>
<br>
Clint:<br>
Just waitin' to grow<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Spendable gold<br>
A man has his creed<br>
And mine is all greed<br>
<br>
Clint, Lee, and Men's Chorus:<br>
Well bite that bogey 'en hound dog<br>
And gold I ain't got an ounze of<br>
Below there's endless amounts of<br>
<br>
Lee:<br>
Just dirty ol' trash<br>
That turns in a flash<br>
To dirty ol' cash<br>
<br>
All:<br>
The best things in life are dirty<br>
The worst thing in life is...<br>
<br>
Lee: <br>
Wakin' up clean, without a bean<br>
<br>
All:<br>
The best things in life are filthy dirty<br>
Hunks of gold, gold, gold,<br>
The best things in life are dirty<br>
The worst thing in life is...<br>
Being content, without a cent<br>
The best things is life are filthy dirty<br>
Hunks of gold, gold, gold, gold<br>
Stinkin', rotten, chunks of<br>
Grimy, slimy, lousy, lovely<br>
<br>
Clint and Lee:<br>
Gold<br>
<br>
