Dark As A Dungeon - Odetta (欧蒂塔)[00:00:00]
Come all you young fellers so young and so fine[00:00:09]
And seek not your fortunes way down in the mine[00:00:21]
It will form like a habit and seep in your soul[00:00:32]
'Til the stream of your blood flows as black as the coal[00:00:45]
It's dark as a dungeon and it's damp as the dew[00:00:57]
Where the dangers are double and the pleasures are few[00:01:07]
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines[00:01:16]
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines[00:01:28]
There is many a man I know in my day[00:01:45]
Who lived just to labor his whole life away[00:01:57]
Like the fiend for his d**e and the drunkard his wine[00:02:08]
A man will have lust for the lure of the mine[00:02:21]
Well I hope when I'm dead and the ages do roll[00:02:37]
My body will blacken and turn into coal[00:02:50]
I will look from the door of my heavenly home[00:03:01]
And pity the miner a' diggin' my bones[00:03:15]
Well it's dark as a dungeon and it's damp as the dew[00:03:27]
But the dangers are double and the pleasures are few[00:03:37]
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines[00:03:46]
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines[00:03:59]
