[NELLIE, spoken]
I gotta go into the cave. He needs me! It's gettin' time

[DOYLE, spoken]
But Miss Nellie, you're not allowed to be here. You know they closed this area off!

[NELLIE, spoken]
But the wind!

[DOYLE, spoken]
You can't go under, it's too dangerous—

[NELLIE, sung]
But why can all a' you go?
Like fire!
Like air!
'T ain't fair that all a' you go

You men
Goin' under
Always scootin' 'round an' a-runnin' things
Always goin' 'roun an' a-runnin' things
Tick tock tick tock
Tock tick tock!

I'm achin' a' go! Please!
I'm achin' t' set him free
What's wrong with me?
What's wrong with me?
I'ma walk you through the mountain on a bearskin rug
Through the great halls you dream of
An' tell of so often
I'ma keep you jes' as warm as a goodnight hug
As we follow 'long the diamonds to the outside

You kin take me on a tour of the em'rald towers
To the spires of sapphires, an' waterfalls a' crystal
We'll lay down to sleep with the gypsum flowers
As we follow 'long the diamonds to the outside
Ooh...

Gonna git you outta there
To a land a' babies dancin' with a banjo in the air
And the sky is all lit up
With lemons and roses;
Ev'rythin' from your head to your toes is warm
Listen to me now...

I'ma walk you through the mountain on a bearskin rug
Through the great halls you dream of and tell of so often
I'ma take you by the hand and with a gentle tug

We'll be gone
We'll be long gone
As we follow 'long the diamonds to the outside
As we follow 'long the diamonds to the outside
