Blantyre Explosion - Christy Moore[00:00:05]

By Clyde's bonny banks as I slowly did wander[00:00:40]

Among the pit heaps as the evening grew nigh[00:00:51]

I spied a young woman all dressed in black mourning[00:01:02]

Weeping and wailing with many a sigh[00:01:14]

I stepped up beside her and gently addressed her[00:01:25]

Would it help you to talk about the cause of your pain [00:01:36]

Weeping and wailing at last she did answer[00:01:47]

Johnny Murphy kind sir is my true lover's name [00:01:58]

Twenty one years of age full of youth and good looking[00:02:09]

To work down the mine of High Blantyre he came[00:02:21]

Our wedding was fixed all the guests were invited[00:02:32]

That calm summers' evening my Johnny was slain[00:02:43]

The explosion was heard by the women and children[00:02:54]

With pale anxious faces they ran to the mine[00:03:06]

When the news was made known all the hills rang with mourning[00:03:17]

Thee hundred and ten Scottish miners were slain [00:03:28]

Mothers and daughters and sweethearts and lovers[00:03:40]

The Blantyre explosion you'll never forget[00:03:49]

All you good people who hear my sad story[00:04:02]

Remember the miners who lie at their rest[00:04:13]
