Kenny Rogers - Buried Treasures Lyrics
As I'm walkin' behind this plow
I keep turnin' over memories
Buried treasure of a past once filled with you
This old ground I know it's mine
And the rain it's been praying for
Is falling from my eyes
Waiting for the settin' sun
When a hard day's work is done
We'd sit down and rock the baby
And plan our dreams
But you turned it all around
With this other man you found
And there's buried treasure
Hidden in the ground
Precious memories of a love
That lived and died
You couldn't be the simple wife
You had to lead the cheatin' life
And you led me down a road I hate to ride
Now the neighbors they all knew
They had seen him leave with you
But what they didn't see
Was I followed close behind
And the next day's paper read
That a man had been found dead
And the lady he'd been seen with
That can't find
And there's buried treasure
Hidden in the ground
Precious memories of a love
That lived and died
You couldn't be the simple wife
You had to lead the cheatin' life
And you led me down a road I hate to ride
As I'm walkin' behind this plow
I keep turning over memories
Buried treasure of a past once filled with you
This old ground I know it's mine
And I've worked it so many times
And the rain it's been praying for
Is falling from my eyes

Kenny Rogers Buried Treasures Comments
I’m 47 this song was released when I was 12 in 5th grade semple elementary
It reminds me of my early years when I was driving one of my brothers taxis NUL808 by then my lovely wife was only my girlfriend I love my wife we still together
the gibb brothers transcends all music boundaries and genres.
"I got a lady in red at the back of my head but the woman in white is you"
Now if the aim in your life is to settle me down,
I couldn't change my point of view;
I got a lady in red at the back of my head,
But the woman in white is you.
Do you want to be the only one,
Fade away in the morning sun?
I could love you all of my life;
You are my wife; haven't I let you know?
We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure; we don't need it.
We don't stand on ceremony,
But life is phony in spite of it.
You can never be all you want to be
When you're searching for gold;
We don't need no buried treasure;
I've still got you, still got you, still got you;
I've still got you in my soul.
Well, it's a long way down, and you've got to get up,
You've got to figure on a master plan;
You couldn't do it; if you don't get ready,
You'll be beaten by the other man.
Do you want to be the last one in;
Play the game that you just don't win?
I can see me making you cry, saying goodbye,
But I could never let you go.
We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure; we don't need it.
We don't stand on ceremony,
But life is phony in spite of it.
You can never be all you want to be
When you're searching for gold;
We don't need no buried treasure;
I've still got you, still got you, still got you;
I've still got you in my soul.
Well, you've taken my life in the palm of your hand â??
Make you mine for another day;
There ain't nobody that doesn't need anybody
When the good times turn away.
I don't want to be the lonely one,
Fade away in the evening sun;
I could love you all of my life;
You are my wife; haven't I told you so?
We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure; we don't need it.
We don't stand on ceremony,
But life is phony in spite of it.
You can never be all you want to be
When you're searching for gold;
We don't need no buried treasure;
I've still got you, still got you, still got you;
I've still got you in my soul.
We don't need it, we don't need it
We don't need no buried treasure,
No buried treasure; we don't need it.
We don't stand on ceremony,
But life is phony in spite of it.
You can never be all you want to be
When you're searching for gold;
We don't need no buried treasure;
I've still got you, still got you, still got you;
I've still got you in my soul.

We don't need no buried treasure;
I've still got you, still got you, still got you;
I've still got you in my soul.
Gatlin brothers helped on backing vocals.
After all these years this album still makes me feel so wonderful. Ah.
Whole album produced by Barry Gibb.
Actually all of The Bee Gees produced the album.
Actually no this was a Barry/Ga!uten/Richardson production.
Miss you Dad. Driving from Cape Town to Durban and those beautiful sunsets we would see.. and you would sing this song and tap the steering wheel just being the greatest dad on earth. I love you. Your Meggie xx

🖐😁
Ty for posting this song. I love it.
The Bee Gees were a hit writing factory. Love Kenny’s version
Yes also looked for this song for years
Awesome song alright, by great artists, BGs, Kenny Rogers
We don't need no buried treasure ,other than this one found by a bit of soul searching. Literally like an individual serenading his own soul to turn away from indulging in the meager, paltry and ever dwindling false pleasures that money can grudgingly and calculatingly only ill afford to buy, and to indulge and dive into the copious, ever increasing bounty that virtue freely, and lavishly bestows.
Deadley
Kenny, and the Brothers BIBB. Talent, its what's missing from todays music.
Its the brothers GIBB
Buried treasure....we still got you in our hearts,Sir Kenny....
Unparalleled voice ... listening to this song since 1982 in cassette... still it’s a gem !
I am really in touched by your song... Kenny
once upon a time... when I was in middle school. Thanks for the song.
My late father had this record. When I was a kid, my baby brother and I played this all the time. I feel OLD and I'm only 37 Lol.
I luv🌹 y Kenny👍💐
There's another KR song also called Buried Treasure about a man finding out his wife had been cheating on him.
It had a line about "...A man had been found dead and the woman he'd been seen with, they can't find."
Haven't heard it since the Greatest Hits Vol 2 was stolen from me in '05.
The Legend of Keny is really your imagination
1st time I hard this song, beautiful song, smoothie voice. LOVE IT
I had a thing for Kenny Rogers ever sinse I saw him in concert in 83,
I am the only one obviously
I don't want you to give me up
We don't need anything but love
beautiful
I don't need money
A true Kenny Rogers voice has no solution, a living legend
Still looking for "The Stranger" It's on the Greatest Hit's Volume 3. For some reason no one has uploaded that album. Just my luck
old guy rocker did you succede..i would lov it too😇

FUCKEN BAD ASS KENNY SING THE FUCK OUT OF IT BRO, HE'LL YEAAAA
This song is Life! ❤
Kenny and the bee gees. u can't get any better than that
It's actually the Gatlin Brothers singing backup, BUT the bee gees wrote the song.
greetings from myself,you look young for this music
this album is super talented people Gatlins, Lionel Richie, Bee gees, Dolly Parton
fantabulous
written by the Bee Gees
fearo153 popularized by Kenny Rogers
In any case though they wrote the song but unfortunately do not agree with their voice this fact but with Kenny much better
Ali Habarat what’s wrong with falsetto? Or falsettos? Maroon Five’s Adam Levine brought it back. But your voice is your voice....the one we call God gave it to us...and them
I think they wrote alot of songs for Kenny. They also wrote Islands in the stream for Kenny & Dolly. I know it's the Gatlin brothers singing backup but I can picture the bee gees doing them as well.
Larry, Steve and Rudy Gatlin sang the background harmony vocals.
Love all of them
simplesmente amo todas as músicas do kenie rogers💜💛💚💖💖💟💟💖💟💟
Você tem bom gosto musical.
lyrics please
Google it
woow! nicee song!! sounds exactly like "everybody knows this is nowhere" by Neil Young! both are great though!!
from Richard gottheil buried treasure
from Richard gottheil buried treasure
from Richard gottheil buried treasure
awesome song by the Great Kenny Rogers!
miss kenny
Pete Marshall It's a real kick ass song from him! One of my favorites.
Yes great song
A nice song melodically, but the lyrics make absolutely no sense.
TravelinBand747 actually the lyrics speak from the perspective of a couple who have made their love work in spite of no marriage certificate. They are defending their choice in comparison with people who race into things, crash and burn because their relationship lacks trust and a firm foundation.
People who get married for the wrong reasons are chasing buried treasure.
If you accept that premise, the lyric makes much more sense. In other words, we're not going to race to the altar while everybody else is defiling the institution of matrimony.
We don't stand on ceremony, but life is phony in spite of it....(ceremony).
Not knocking marriage per se', but being honest enough with themselves to and each other to guard against getting married to satisfy somebody else's agenda.
I kind of get this song...and believe me, in April of 1984, I wish I hadn't stood on ceremony, because 4.5 years is an awful long time to crash and burn, and especially a long time to live in denial.
Plus it rhymed. That's kind of a big deal.
JJ McCartney wow ! Thank you for writing that !
That's the whole secret of the Bee Gees. Great melody, senseless drivel. It made them rich.
awesome
GREAT KENNY ROGERS NUMBER 2 AFTER EVENING STAR FOR ME Thanks for sharing,Keith CHEERS
Great Kenny Rogers Song and Backing Vocals by The Great GATLIN BROTHERS Thanks for sharing,Keith CHEERS
JUST COUNTRY got to see Kenny and the Gatlins back in 1982..then Kenny alone in 2005..loved him both times
One of the best country pop album of all time.The best album from me for 1983!
Gatlin brothers singin' backup.
+Dave Wollenberg I know they did. But it sounds like the Bee Gees did maybe because the Bee Gees produced it. I can hear the voice of Larry Gatlin though.
@루가 1:43주님의 어머니 I think the bee gees did the instruments along with writing the songs for the album
This is the "B"-side to "This Woman" - a great song by the man himself - Kenny Rogers!
Bravo, Kenny Rogers!
Rigger Morale... ......
awesome!
I have looked for this song for years! Thanks for the upload. This really takes me back to my childhood!!
@irwinwilliamson I know what you mean,keith
College for me
I sure like this song...it's what country is all bout.
