crooked oak - will jobling / i'll never gan tae the dark cellar nee mer lyrics

Loading...

will jobling was a miner
he lived in durham town
and every day he worked so hard
to take his pay back home
conditions working underground
worse than bl++dy h+ll
so jobling and his workmates
rallied to the bell

ailiooh, ahliay, ailiooh, ahliay
help the miner’s union
and clear will jobling’s name

will jobling’s kids grew hungry
their needs he had to keep
while the owners swore onto themselves
soon this strike they’d beat
and the name of the miner’s union
were sneered at all the timе
right down from in glamorgan
up to the river of tyne

ailiooh, ahliay, ailiooh, ahliay
hеlp the miner’s union
and clear will jobling’s name
one warm sunny evening
while walking with a friend
he met george fairless from south shields
asked a pound to lend
well fairless, he just laughed
and he made to pass them by
and jobling’s friend attacked him
and left him there to die

ailiooh, ahliay, ailiooh, ahliay
help the miner’s union
and clear will jobling’s name

to the durham court and sessions
will jobling had to go
for the murder of george fairless
though he had struck no blow
the judge’s voice was “guilty”
the judge’s voice was heard
you’ll be hung high and gibbeted, lad
that’s me final word

ailiooh, ahliay, ailiooh, ahliay
help the miner’s union
and clear will jobling’s name
so on a cold and frosty morning
his body hung in chains
will jobling died in agony
all for the miner’s games
his body in a metal cage
buried there close by
as a martyr for the union
his name shall never die

ailiooh, ahliay, ailiooh, ahliay
help the miner’s union
and clear will jobling’s name

ailiooh, ahliay, ailiooh, ahliay
help the miner’s union
and clear will jobling’s name
