hartford baby grande - big john smith lyrics

big john smith had a hard working life
he worked all day
he worked in the collage to support his greedy wife
no time for play

big john smith had a black coaly face
from the sooty coal
he worked with his hands, mining coal in every place
in that deep dark hole

so sing for the cells, mining out all the coal
underneath the ground
where all of us men working in the devil’s den
never hear a woman’s sound
in the tunnels underground
in the tunnels underground
in the tunnels underground, oh
then one day a tragedy occurred
in the rumbling mine
all escaped but john was never heard
we found out soon in time

that john warned his men before he met his gaudy end
at that fatal time
he let out a shout before he got himself out
of that dreadful cursed mine
dreadful cursed mine
dreadful cursed mine
dreadful cursed mine, oh

now john smith has become a miner’s myth
in every miner’s mind
he lost his life for them who worked in the devil’s den
at that fatal time
died without a dime
died without a dime
died without a dime, oh

oh he died, oh he died
oh he died, oh he died

underneath the ground, his bony body’s bound
underneath the coal lies a miner’s soul
underneath the ground, his bony body’s bound
underneath the coal lies a miner’s soul
underneath the ground, his bony body’s bound
underneath the coal lies a miner’s soul
underneath the ground, his bony body’s bound
underneath the coal lies a miner’s soul
underneath the ground lies a miner’s bound
oh he died, oh he died, oh he died
underneath the ground, his bony body’s bound
