The Prospector's Last Camp
The uyuccas are waxen, fiar and frail
Today on the Great Divide;
So I'll take the pleasant, easy trail
To a camp on the Otherside.
There, I'll meet my friends of long ago,
Stray-Dog Smith and Pharo Nell
Young Doc Bulett, I loved him so,
Pat Casey from Stove-pipe Well.
Timberline Bob of Bullfrog Flat,
The boys from Bonanza Hill,
A sky-pilot, known as Parson Platt,
And my Pard, Four-Cylinder Bill.
His Honor, Judge Mitchell, who struck it rich,
Packed nuggets around in his purse,
The Death Valley twins, you couldn't tell which
And lovely Jennie the nurse.
Tonight while the beautiful flowers are sweet
On the hills by the moon-white road,
I'll leave my cabin, all snug and neat
And tramp to my new abode;
there at the Paradise Placer Mine
Dear friends will welcome me,
We'll wash the sands of the River-of-time
And camp for Eternity.
