Take a ride through the mines

See the place that I call home

In the hills coal miners gave it all

To black lung and alcohol

​

In the dark is all we've ever known

Brothers marching on towards death and broken bones

​

John is gone crushed inside

Left behind the ones he loved

To the church...hell to the bar

Leave the bottle and light my dart

​

In the dark is all we've ever known

Brothers marching on towards death and broken bones

​

Just fifty-five turned ninety-nine

Thanks to mining all that coal

A defeated man gave it all

To black lung and alcohol
