enter the haggis - dryden mine lyrics

[verse 1]
from nanticoke to carbondale
you cannot find a bigger name
you can sell your share of daylight
for a fair and standing wage
some are rough and some are reckless
some are rude and some are kind
but not a man who stands among us
would leave another man in the mine

[verse 2]
well, they call me young blind benny
and my brother, he is tom
i work the door to let the cars by
i can hear them come along
there’s a doctor in the city
who could make my sight return
so me and tom are holding on
to every penny that we earn
[chorus]
and it’s, “no, sir, i don’t mind working in the darkness”
the eyes of a blind man ain’t looking for the light
and it’s, “no, sir, i don’t mind working in the darkness”
as long as they will keep me on, i’ll work the dryden mine

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
well, our father came before us
from the country of our birth
come to find the life and prosper
try to prove to god his worth

[chorus]
and it’s, “no, sir, i don’t mind working in the darkness”
the eyes of a blind man ain’t looking for the light
and it’s, “no, sir, i don’t mind working in the darkness”
as long as they will keep me on, i’ll work the dryden mine
and it’s, “no, sir, i don’t mind working in the darkness”
the eyes of a blind man ain’t looking for the light
and it’s, “no, sir, i don’t mind working in the darkness”
as long as they will keep me on, i’ll work the dryden mine

[instrumental outro]
i’ll work the dryden mine
