Dark As A Dungeon Songtext / Lyric


Bobby Bare - Dark As A Dungeon Songtext


Come listen you fellows so young and so fine

And seek not your fortune in the dark dreary mine

It will form as a habit and seep in your soul

'Till the stream of your blood is as black as the coal



It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew

Where the danger is double and the pleasures are few

Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines

It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines






It's many a man I've known in my day

Who lived just to labor his young 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 and damp as the dew

Where the danger is double and the pleasures are few

Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines

It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines



I hope when I'm gone and the ages shall roll

My body will blacken and turn into coal

Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home

And pity the miner a-digging my bones



It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew

Where the danger is double and the pleasures are few

Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines

It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
