Featherston's Finest

Aglow in the Arrow

Tomorrow I go down to Otago
Prospecting for flecks of yellow
I'll stake me claim, as hundreds done same
'Langside the river Arrow

There's gold in them hills, I'm told, I'm told
There's gold in them hills, I'm told
I'll leave the North Isle, just for the meanwhile
There's gold in them hills, I'm told

On shore a young boy from Ngati Mamoe
Showed me how that river did flow
All day I'd sift stones while the cold burnt me bones
For the current draws straight from the snow

For it's cold in them waters, it's cold, it's cold
It's cold in them waters, it's cold
Too long in the river, brings rheumatic fever
It's cold in them waters, it's cold

In the opium den of a Chinaman friend

A remedy was readied for me
A cut of moonshine to help ease me spine
On a substrate of milk pappy tea

For laudanum eases thy soul, thy soul
For laudanum eases thy soul
Me spirits so liftin', I return to siftin'
Cos laudanum eases thy soul

With all me debts paid, small wealth had I made
For seven hard years in a row
I pine for Ngawi, no more gold dust for me
Back homeward tomorrow I go

On opium, I spent me gold, me gold
On opium, I spent me gold
Nothing remains but backaches and pains
On opium, I spent all me gold
