Deep Into the Ground

[00:02.53] Oh once I was a young man
[00:04.33] Looked over vales and hills
[00:08.84] Saw myself a future
[00:11.67] of riches and of thrills
[00:17.05] But on me fifteenth birthday
[00:21.59] I paid my union dues
[00:26.08] And they sent me deep into the ground
[00:33.33] Oh the winter wind can blow me colder
[00:38.76] Oh the summer's heat can parch me dry
[00:44.40] But I'll not leave here for a fortune
[00:47.17] I shall never leave here till I die
[01:00.68] Oh once I had a family
[01:04.31] Sons to make you proud
[01:09.77] They have gone and left me now,
[01:13.30] And I count the time out loud
[01:17.86] For now I am an old man
[01:22.34] Just waiting for my turn
[01:26.85] Till they take me back into the ground
[01:33.27] Oh the winter wind can blow me colder
[01:39.57] Oh the summer's heat can parch me dry
[01:43.14] But I'll not leave here for a fortune
[01:47.67] I shall never leave here till I die
[01:52.27] Oh the winter wind can blow me colder
[01:56.78] Oh the summer's heat can parch me dry
[02:00.73] But I'll love these dark, dark hills forever
[02:05.33] And I won't leave them until I die
[02:17.98] Oh once I loved a woman
[02:22.47] She meant all she world to me
[02:27.02] Saw ourselves a future
[02:31.57] As far as I could see
[02:36.02] But I was only forty-seven
[02:39.67] when they took her down from me
[02:45.00] And buried her deep
[02:49.67] Oh the winter wind can blow me colder
[02:57.73] Oh the summer's heat can parch me dry
[03:01.36] But I'll love these dark, dark hills forever
[03:05.96] And I won't leave them now until I die
[03:28.51]
