Original Broadway Cast of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Murrell’s Gold
[Injun Joe]
Now listen Muff, do you wanna hang?
Do you want my help?
What's it gonna be?
I'm willing to do what must be done to get you off I guarantee
But one thing you must do for me
Justice can be bought and sold
But it might take all of Murrell's gold
Yea it might take of Murrell'sgold

[Muff]
It's just a piece of paper Joe

[Injun Joe]
With arrows and a lot of lines

[Muff]
What it all means, nobody knows

[Injun Joe]
It means that gold's been left behind
It's waiting there for me to find

[Muff]
It's just a tale an old fool told
[Injun Joe]
Or maybe it's old Murrell's gold
Or maybe it's old Murrell's gold
It says "room number twenty two
Beneath the cross it waits for you"

[Muff]
And who knows where that cross might be

[Injun Joe]
You just leave it all to me
It might take all the fold I find to break you out

[Muff]
You've got to try 'cause you're the only chance I got
They're comin' Joe, it's do or die

[Joe]
Just trust me, Muff, I wouldn't lie

[Muff]
How can I ever thank ya Joe?

[Joe]
It might take all of Murrell's gold
It might take all of Murrell's gold
