Текст песни: Ho! For California + перевод

We’ve formed our band, and we’re all well manned

To journey afar to the promised land

Where the golden ore is rich in store

On the banks of the Sacramento shore

Then, ho! Boys ho!

To California go

There’s plenty of gold in the world we’re told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Heigh ho and away we go

Digging up the gold in Francisco

Oh don’t you cry, nor heave a sigh

For we’ll all come back again by and by

Don’t breathe a fear, nor shed a tear

But patiently wait for about two year

As the gold is thar most any whar

And they dig it out with an iron bar

And where 'tis thick, with a spade or pick

They can take out lumps as big as a brick

Then, ho! Boys ho!

To California go

There’s plenty of gold in the world we’re told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Heigh ho and away we go

Digging up the gold in Francisco

As we explore that distant shore

We’ll fill our pockets with the shining ore

And how 'twill sound as the wind goes 'round

Of our picking up gold by the dozen pound

Then, ho! Boys ho!

To California go

There’s plenty of gold in the world we’re told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Heigh ho and away we go

Digging up the gold in Francisco

Then, ho! Boys ho!

To California go

There’s plenty of gold in the world we’re told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Heigh ho and away we go

Digging up the gold in Francisco
