Pocketful Of Quartz

[Verse 1]
I hit the wash at dawn
With my boots half-mud
Sun on the hammer head
Dust on my cuff

Canyon walls still yawning
I can hear them hum
Every broken little stone
Says, "Come and dig some"

[Pre-Chorus]
Flip the shale, turn it over
Hold it to the light
One good stripe of agate
Sets the whole thing right

[Chorus]
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Find me in the ground
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Low note, high note, round and round

Quartz in my pocket
Keep the old earth sound
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Turn it up and down

[Verse 2]
Creepin' through the talus
I spot that blue-green seam
One eye on the pebbles
One eye on the gleam

Little geodes grinning
Like they know my name
I crack one open, baby
And the whole hill flames

[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that chip, hear that shimmer
That slick little spark
If the vein runs deep enough
I can map the dark

[Chorus]
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Find me in the ground
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Low note, high note, round and round

Quartz in my pocket
Keep the old earth sound
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Turn it up and down

[Bridge]
Low note in the canyon
High note on the ridge
Tiny hands of daylight
Crossing every bridge

Turn, twist, warp me
Past the rust and bone
Every stone got a story
And I want them all to know

[Final Chorus]
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Find me in the ground
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Low note, high note, round and round

Quartz in my pocket
Keep the old earth sound
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Turn it up and down

Rockhounding, rockhounding
I’m the one found out
Rockhounding, rockhounding
Sing it loud, sing it loud
