Dolly Parton 9 To 5 & Odd Jobs Dark As A Dungeon Come and listen you fellows So young and do fine And seek not your fortune In the dark, dreary mines It will form as a habit Seep in your soul 'til the blood in your veins Runs as black as the coal There's many a man That i've known in my day Who lived just to labor His whole life away Like a fiend with his dope And a drunkard his wine A man will have lust for The lure of the mine It's dark as a dungeon Damp as the dew The danger is double And the pleasures are few Where the rain never falls Where the sun never shines It's dark as a dungeon Way down in the mine I hope when i'm gone And the ages shall roll My body will blacken And turn into coal Then i'll look out the door Of my heavenly home And i'll pity the miners A-diggin' my bones It's dark as a dungeon Damp as the dew The danger is double And the pleasures are few Where the rain never falls Where the sun never shines It's dark as a dungeon Way down in the mine Where the rain never falls Where the sun never shines It's dark as a dungeon Way down in the mine |
