dave burns - farewell to the rhondda lyrics

farewell the colliery worker
the m+ffler and the cap
farewell you rhondda valley girls
we never will come back
the mines they are aclosing
the valleys all are doomed
oh, there’s no work in the rhondda, boys
we’ll be in london soon

my father was a miner
his father was before him
and they always have been proud to work below
since they felled neath robin’s axe
all the lads have got the sack
and away to work in england
we must go
farewell the colliery worker
the m+ffler and the cap
farewell you rhondda valley girls
we never will come back
the mines they are aclosing
the valleys all are doomed
oh, there’s no work in the rhondda, boys
we’ll be in london soon

no more, the chapel singing
that long ago has left us
in the public house, no more the miner’s sound
for the population’s dropping
as the pit wheels are astopping
and i can’t afford to stay here very long

treherbert and treorchy
tonypandy and tynewydd
ystrad rhondda, ton pentre, all adieu
for we can no longer wait
while parliament debates
so a sad farewell we bid to all of you
farewell the colliery worker
the m+ffler and the cap
farewell you rhondda valley girls
we never will come back
the mines they are aclosing
the valleys all are doomed
oh, there’s no work in the rhondda, boys
we’ll be in london soon
