Searchin Lyrics

In the Earth, there are so many wonderful treasures
And if you know where to dig, you will find gold and diamonds
All kinds of treasures
But if you don't know where to dig, all you will find is rocks and dirt
He can show you where to dig, and what to dig for
But the digging you must do yourself (the digging you must do yourself)

Let go of what y'all know
Return to the land of the rainbow
Where the sun hang low and the wind does blow
And the time it move so slow
Creeps and go through the window
Return to the land where the wild mare roam
And the buffalo go, yeah the buffalo go
Where the wild mare roam

Cross the countryside search far and wide
Dig until I reach upon the other side
Streams and the rivers and the oceans and the streets
Gonna swim with the fishes 'til I'm deep

I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life, my life

I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life, my life, my life

Lift your eyes upon the hillside
Sunrise and I fight to see through the lies
Leap upon the skies on the clouds so high
When I fly by the heights feeling oh so right
Finally find the land and I'm kickin' up sand
When I stand and deliver the plan

Won't you please back down
Or get slammed to the ground
When my slams strike thunder
While your village is under

Now you wonder why you going under
Got yo' self on the run from the number one
That you can't run from
You sped with fate
You feel hunger (hunger)

I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life, my life

I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life, my life, my life

(In the Earth, there are so many wonderful treasures
And if you know where to dig
You will find gold and diamonds)

I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life, my life

I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life, my life, my life

(In the Earth, there are so many wonderful treasures
And if you know where to dig
You will find gold and diamonds and silver and all kinds of treasures
But if you don't know where to dig, all you will find is rocks and dirt
A rebbe is the geologist of the soul
He can show you where to dig, and what to dig for
But the digging you must do yourself, the digging you must do yourself)
