Ballad Of Spring Hill (Spring Hil) - Peter，Paul & Mary

In the town of Spring Hill,

Nova Scotia

Down in the heart

of the Cumberland Mine

There's blood on the coal

and miners lie

In the roads

that never saw sun or sky

Roads that never saw sun

or sky

Down at the coal face

the miner's working

Rattle of the belt

and the cutter's blade

Crumble of rock

and the walls close round

Living and the dead men,

two miles down

Living and the dead men,

two miles down

Twelve men lay two miles

from the pitshaft

Listen for the drilling of a rescue team

Six hundred feet of coal and slag

Hope imprisoned in a three-foot seam

Hope imprisoned in a three-foot seam

Eight days passed

and some were rescued

Leaving the dead to lie alone

All their lives they dug their graves

Two miles of earth for a marking stone

Two miles of earth for a marking stone

In the town of Spring Hill

you don't sleep easy

Often the Earth will tremble and groan

When the Earth is restless, miners die

Bone and blood is the price of coal

Bone and blood is the price of coal
