Peter, Paul & Mary - Ballad Of Spring Hill (Spring Hill Disaster) Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • In the town of spring hill, nova scotia,
  • Down in the heart of the cumberland mine,
  • Theres blood on the coal and miners lie
  • In the roads that never saw sun or sky
  • Roads that never saw sun or sky.
  • Down at the coal face the miners workin
  • Rattle of the belt and the cutters blade
  • Crumble of rock and the walls close round
  • Living and the dead men two miles down
  • Living and the dead men two miles down
  • Twelve men lay two miles from the pitshaft
  • Listen for the drillin of a rescue team
  • Six hundred feet of coal and slag
  • Hope imprisoned in a three-foot seam
  • Hope imprisoned in a three-foot seam
  • Eight days passed and some were rescued
  • Leaving the dead to lie alone
  • All their lives they dug their graves
  • Two miles of earth for a markin stone
  • Two miles of earth for a markin stone
  • In the town of spring hill you dont sleep easy
  • Often the earth will tremble and groan
  • When the earth is restless, miners die
  • Bone and blood is the price of coal
  • Bone and blood is the price of coal
