RE:The Barkerville Gold Rush...it's Back!!!!In a cavern, In a canyon,
Searching for a long-lost mine,
Dwelt a miner, a forty-niner,
And his pet project, the BL Mine.
Chorus:
Oh my darling, Oh my darling,
Oh my darling BL Mine,
You are lost and gone forever,
Dreadful sorry BL Mine.
Repeat chorus
Low grade and light of content,
But the pyrites they did shine;
Dynamite boxes, without topses,
Held the core from the BL Mine.
Repeat chorus
Came the suckers to the slaughter,
Opening bell was just at nine;
Ten million ounces went and vanished,
Fell before the cease-trade line.
Repeat chorus
Ruby lips above the water,
Blowing BS, soft and fine;
But Alas! it was no winner,
So I lost my BL mine.
Repeat chorus
When the halt was finally lifted,
Share price fast began to pine,
Thought he oughter heed the slaughter,
Mr. Market dumped the BL Mine.
Repeat chorus
On a bullboard in busy Stockhouse,
Where the keyboard chimps do entwine,
Grow the myths and live the posers,
Fertilizing the BL Mine.
Repeat chorus
Now you punters, there's a moral
To this little tale of mine.
A rollback and a rights offering,
Might have saved The BL Mine.
In my dreams it still doth haunt me,
Of a takeover north of nine.
Though alive I used to love it,
Now it's dead, I'll draw the line.
