jim kweskin - dark as a dungeon lyrics
travis
i never will forget one time when i was on a little visit down home in ebenezer, kentucky. i was a-talkin’ to an old man that had known me ever since the day i was born, and an old friend of the family. he says, “son, you don’t know how lucky you are to have a nice job like you’ve got and don’t have to dig out a livin’ from under these old hills and hollers like me and your pappy used to.” when i asked him why he never had left and tried some other kind of work, he says, “nawsir, you just won’t do that. if ever you get this old coal dust in your blood, you’re just gonna be a plain old coal miner as long as you live.” he went on to say, “it’s a habit [chuckle] sorta like chewin’ tobaccer.”
come and listen you fellows, so young and so fine
and seek not your fortune in the dark, dreary mines
it will form as a habit and seep in your soul
’till the stream of your blood is as black as the coal
chorus:
it’s dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
where danger is double and pleasures are few
where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
it’s dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
it’s a-many a man i have seen in my day
who lived just to labor his whole life away
like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard his wine
a man will have l-st for the lure of 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-diggin’ my bones
