Blackleg Miner
Steeleye Span

It's in the evening after darknWhen the blackleg miner creeps to worknWith his moleskin pants and dirty shirtnThere goes the blackleg minernnWell he grabs his duds and down he goesnTo hew the coal that lies belownThere's not a woman in this town rownWill look at the blackleg minernnOh Delaval is a terrible placenThey rub wet clay in the blackleg's facenAnd around the heaps they run a foot racenTo catch the blackleg minernnAnd divvnt gan near the Seghill minenAcross the way they stretch a linenTo catch the throat and break the spinenOf the dirty blackleg minernnThey grab his duds and his picks as wellnThey hoy him down to the pit of hellnDown you go and fare yee wellnYou dirty blackleg minernnIt's in the evening after darknWhen the blackleg miner creeps to worknWith his moleskin pants and dirty shirtnThere goes the blackleg minernnSo join the union while you maynDon't wait 'til your dying day nFor that may not be far away nYou dirty blackleg miner
