In the
spring
of forty-
seven
So the
story
it is
told
Old John
Sutter
went to the Mill
site
Found a
piece
of shinin'
gold.
Well, he
took it
to the
city
Where the
word
like wildfire
spread
Old John
Sutter
soon came to
wishin'
He'd left that
stone
in the river
bed.
Oh, they
came like herds of
locusts
Every
wo-
man, child and
man
In their
lumberin' connes-
togas
They left their
track
upon the
land.
Some would
fail and some would
prosper
Some would
die
and some would
killed
Some would
beg the Lord for their de-
liverance
Some would
curse
John Sutter's
Mill.
Well, they
came
from New York
City
And they
came
from
Ala-
bam'
With their
dream
of findin' for-
tune
In this
wild
unsettled
land.
Well, some fell
prey
to hostile
arrows
As they
tried
to cross the
land
And some were
lost
in the Rocky
Mountains
With their
hands
froze to the
reins.
Some would
fail and some would
prosper
Some would
die
and some would
killed
Some would
beg the Lord for their de-
liverance
Some would
curse
John Sutter's
Mill.

Some pushed
on
to
Cali-
fornia
Others
stopped
to take their
rest
And by the
spring
of
eighteen-
sixty
They had
opened
up the
west.
And then the
railroad
came
be-
hind
them
And the
land
was plowed and
tame
When old John
Sutter
went to meet his
Maker
With not one
penny
to his
name.
Some would
fail and some would
prosper
Some would
die
and some would
kill
Some would
beg the Lord for their de-
liverance
Some would
curse
John Sutter's
Mill.
Some would
curse
John Sutter's
Mill
Some men's
thirsts
are never
filled.
