Hey! I can help with this one, but it will take awhile. That was my brother singing it on the documentary. He was a ranger at the Marshall Gold Discovery Site at the time, but has since retired to a life of genteel folk-singer poverty. He has quite a collection of Gold Rush material. If you're ever in the Gold Country, look for performances by Alan Fuller.

I'll be seeing him in a couple of weeks, and I'll ask for the lyrics when I do. Watch this space...
