Come all you young fellers, so young and so fineAnd seek not your fortunes way down in the mineIt will form like a habit and seep in your soul'Til the stream of your blood flows as black as the coalIt's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dewWhere the dangers are double and the pleasures are fewWhere the rain never falls and the sun never shinesIt's dark as a dungeon way down in the minesThere is many a man I have seen in my dayWho lived just to labor his whole life awayLike the fiend with his dope and the drunkard his wineA man will have lust for the lure of the mineIt's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dewWhere the dangers are double and the pleasures are fewWhere the rain never falls and the sun never shinesIt's dark as a dungeon way down in the minesI hope when I'm dead and the ages shall rollThat my body will blacken and turn into coalI will look from the door of my heavenly homeAnd pity the miner a' diggin' my bonesIt's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dewLetras de cancionesWhere the dangers are double and the pleasures are fewWhere the rain never falls and the sun never shinesIt's dark as a dungeon way down in the minesIt's dark as a dungeon way down in the mineIt's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine From Letras Mania
