Lyrics:Come and listen you fellows
So young and do fine
And seek not your fortune
In the
dark, dreary mines
It will form as a habit
Seep in your soul
'til the blood in your
veins
Runs as black as the coal

There's many a man
That i've known in my
day
Who lived just to labor
His whole life away

Like a fiend with his dope

And a drunkard his wine
A man will have lust for
The lure of the mine

It's dark
as a dungeon
Damp as the dew
The danger is double
And the pleasures are few


Where the rain never falls
Where the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon

Way down in the mine

I hope when i'm gone
And the ages shall roll
My body will
blacken
And turn into coal

Then i'll look out the door
Of my heavenly home

And i'll pity the miners
A-diggin' my bones

It's dark as a dungeon
Damp as the
dew
The danger is double
And the pleasures are few

Where the rain never
falls
Where the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon
Way down in the mine


Where the rain never falls
Where the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon

Way down in the mine
