Dark As A Dungeon

<p>Oh come all you young fellers so young and so fine<br/>Seek not your fortune in a dark dreary mine<br/>It&#x27;ll form as a habit and seep in your soul<br/>Till the stream of your blood runs as black as the coal<br/><br/>Where it&#x27;s dark as a dungeon damp as the dew<br/>Danger is double and pleasures are few<br/>Where the rain never falls the sun never shines<br/>It&#x27;s a dark as a dungeon way down in the mine<br/><br/>Well it&#x27;s many a man that, that I&#x27;ve seen in my day<br/>Like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard with his wine<br/>A man will have lust for the lure of the mine<br/><br/>And a pray when I&#x27;m dead and my ages shall roll<br/>That my body would blacken and turn into coal<br/>Then I&#x27;ll look from the door of my heavenly home<br/>And pity the miner digging my bones<br/>Where it&#x27;s dark as a dungeon damp as the dew<br/>Danger is double pleasures are few<br/>Where the rain never falls the sun never shines<br/>It&#x27;s a dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
