jean ritchie - blue diamond mines lyrics
[verse 1]
i remember the ways
in the bygone days
when we was all in our prime
how us and john l.
we give the old man h_ll
down in the blue diamond mines
[verse 2]
when the whistle blowed
‘fore the rooster crowed
full two hour before daylight
when a man done his best
and he earned his good rest
and had seventeen dollars at night
[chorus]
in the mines, in the mines
in the blue diamond mines
i havе worked my life away
in the minеs, in the mines
in the blue diamond mines
oh, fall on your knees and pray
[verse 3]
you old black gold
you’ve taken my soul
your dust has darkened my home
and now i’m old
and you turn your back
where else can an old miner go?
[verse 4]
well, it’s big leatherwood
algoma block
now it’s all blue diamond too
well, the pits they’re closed
get another job
what work can an old miner do?
[chorus]
in the mines, in the mines
in the blue diamond mines
i have worked my life away
in the mines, in the mines
in the blue diamond mines
oh, fall on your knees and pray
[verse 5]
john l. had a dream
but it’s broken, it seems
now our union’s a_lettin’ us down
last week they took away
my hospital card
said, “why don’t you leave this old town?”
[verse 6]
oh, it’s go downtown
boys, and hang around
well, maybe it ain’t so bad
go on back home
and they meet you at the door
and it’s “what did you bring me, dad?”
[chorus]
in the mines, in the mines
in the blue diamond mines
i have worked my life away
in the mines, in the mines
in the blue diamond mines
oh, fall on your knees and pray
