Tonart: G major
Verse 1
G
Thank you ladies and gentlemen.
My name's Buck.
Y 'all know yours.
Hey, we want to begin
with a song that's a true song.
I wrote it and I lived it.
It's a song for the gamblers
and the would -be gamblers
and some of them that
don't gamble no more.
It's entitled very simply
The Nugget Lament.
You know when you lament about something
it means you're sorry.
Brother we're sorry.
The story begins thusly.
Well, I came to the nugget

with my pockets full of money,

a big old diamond ring on my hand.

in a big long Cadillac.
