Dark as a Dungeon Lyrics by The Rebel (UK)

KROT

0

[Verse 1]
Come and listen, you fellers, so young and so fine
And seek not your fortunes in the dark, dreary mine
It will form as a habit and seep in your soul
'Til the blood in your veins runs as black as the coal
[Chorus]
Where it's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the danger is double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
Oh, it's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
[Verse 2]
There is many a man I've known in my day
Who livеd just to labor his whole life away
Like a fiеnd with his dope or a drunkard his wine
A man will have lust for the lure of the mines
[Chorus]
Where it's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the danger is double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
Oh, it's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
[Verse 3]
I hope when I die and the ages shall roll
My body will blacken and turn into coal
Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home
And I'll pity the miner digging my bones
[Chorus]
Where it's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where the danger is double and the pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
Oh, it's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
