@andylaroo85 Actually, it's died poor. Note that the next line he sings he CLEARLY pronunciates the F in for- meaning the line before HAD to have been poor, because there was a big difference in the pronunciation.
Lyrics to Rough Gem : The world beat you for the something nice You worked hard, died more You mined what you died for Diamonds di di di di di uh You can whistle my name It's the mines, in Africa That are to blame You can Scoop out my brain Shape it into an ear and then tell me your pain I've been awake from the first day Stayed awake, stayed awake The rabbit was removed under the whole moon Longer, short road
The world beat you for the something nice You worked hard, died more You mined what you died for Diamonds di di di di di uh You can whistle my name It's the mines, in Africa That are to blame You can Scoop out my brain Shape it into an ear and then tell me your pain I've been awake from the first day Stayed awake, stayed awake The rabbit (?) the whole moon Longer, short road

in the second line it sounds more like "died poor" not "died more"
doesn't that make more sense?
lyrics websites are stupid.

I believe it's actually "died for" I think that makes sense....
