Dave Dudley Miscellaneous Last Day In The Mines (1964) For as long as I can remember I’ve worked down in this pit But today it’s all over for this is the day I quit Gonna take my sweet little Jenny and make her my own We will move down in the valley and build ourselves a home This is my last day in the mines I swing that pick move that shovel and time goes so slow I can hardly wait for the boss to tell me that it’s time to go Up at the top I know my Jenny is waiting patiently In just a few minutes I’ll be there with her and from the mines be free This is my last day in the mines Wait a minute, what’s that rumble way back in the ground Good lord it’s a cave in and the rocks are a-falling all around The timbers are a-breaking the rats are a-running and I can hardly see Inside my chest there’s a mighty burning my strength is leaving me This is my last day in the mines Yes my strength is slowly leaving and my mind plays tricks on me For it seems I can hear my Jenny calling tenderly Though my friend will try to reach me I afraid it’ll be too late For over that river and through that valley I see heaven’s gate This is my last day in the mines This is my last day in the mines |
