freakwater - dark as a dungeon lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
come listen you fellows so young and so fine
and seek not your fortune in the dark dreary mine
it’ll form as a habit and seep in your soul
’til the stream of your blood is as black as the coal

[chorus]
it’s as dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mine

[verse 2]
there’s many a man i’ve seen in my day
who live just to labor his whole lifе away
like a fiend for his dope and a drunkard his winе
a man will have l+st for the lure of the mine

[chorus]
it’s as dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mine

[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
well, i hope when i’m gone and the ages shall roll
my body will blacken and turn into coal
i’ll look from that door of that heavenly home
and pity the miner diggin’ my bones

[chorus]
it’s as dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
