Dark As A Dungeon - Harry Belafonte (哈里·貝拉方特)

Written by:Merle Travis

Come all you young fellers so young and so fine

 

Seek not your fortune in the dark dreary mine

 

It'll form as a habit it'll seed in your soul

 

Till the blood in your veins runs black as the coal

 

For it's dark as a dungeon and it's damp as the dew

 

Where the dangers are double the pleasures are few

 

Where the rain never falls the sun never shines

 

Oh god it's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines

 

Oh it's many a man I've known in my day

 

Who lived just to labor his whole life away

 

Like a fiend for his d**e a drunkard his wine

 

A man will have lust for the lure of the mine

 

Oh I hope when I die and the ages do roll

 

Yes my body will harden and turn into coal

 

And I look from the door of my heavenly home

 

To see a poor miner a diggin' my bones

 

For it's dark as a dungeon and it's damp as the dew

 

Where the dangers are double the pleasures are few

 

Where the rain never falls the sun never shines

 

 

Oh god it's dark as a dungeon way down in the mines
