Lyrics
Leave behind the camp
Light the Davy lamp
Time to ride the vein
Enter though the main
Mines are callin'
Hard time's fallin'
Deep within the shaft
Echoing with blasts
Chocks of timber creak
Faces flicker bleak
Time starts crawlin'
Rocks start fallin'
Her face comes to your mind
Beautiful and kind
Before the crumbling roar
Drives you to the floor
Times are callin'
Hard mine's fallin'
When the rubble's cleared
And they find what's feared
Another miner's gone
But the show goes on
Mines are callin'
Hard times fallin'
