they were old timers
they were gold miners
following another get rich scheme
packing up and heading west
doing what they thought was best
hoping to fulfill their wealthy dream
gold fever deep within the vein
sadly turning out the same
out of money they gave up their plan
going bust, they just stopped tryin'
left behind their rusty iron
leaving ugly scars upon the land
they were web designers
modern day forty-niners
mining from the corner office suite
checking fluctuating prices
trading crypto from devices
from towers made of steel and concrete
unlike the folks in forty-nine
they take risks of a different kind
livin' large in the land of milk and honey
but as the clients lose their trust
the modern prospectors go bust
but they're losing other peoples' money
