Dark as a Dungeon

[00:00.27] Oh come all you young fellers so young and so fine [00:16.62] Seek not your fortune in a dark dreary mine [00:23.83] It'll form as a habit and seep in your soul [00:32.65] Till the stream of your blood runs as black as the coal [00:39.73] Where it's dark as a dungeon damp as the dew [00:48.69] Danger is double pleasures are few [00:55.69] Where the rain never falls the sun never shines [01:02.99] It's a dark as a dungeon way down in the mine [01:10.56] Well it's many a man that I've seen in my day [01:11.86] Like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard with his wine [01:12.33] A man will have lust for the lure of the mine [01:12.94] And pray when I'm dead and my ages shall roll [01:28.34] That my body would blacken and turn into coal [01:35.32] Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home [01:44.17] And pity the miner digging my bones [01:51.68] Where it's dark as a dungeon damp as the dew [02:00.80] Danger is double pleasures are few [02:07.74] Where the rain never falls the sun never shines [02:15.20] It's a dark as a dungeon way down in the mine [02:24.57]
