Cowboy Junkies - Mining For Gold Lyrics
We are miners, hard rock minersTo the shaft house we must goPour your bottles on our shouldersWe are marching to the slowOn the line boys, on the line boysDrill your holes and stand in linetil the shift boss comes to tell youYou must drill her out on topCant you feel the rock dust in your lungs?Itll cut down a miner when he is still youngTwo years and the silicosis takes holdAnd I feel like Im dying from mining for goldYes, I feel like Im dying from mining for gold
