Corky and the Juice Pigs - Miners lyrics

Down in the mine it's dark and it's damp

Your legs will be bent and your buttocks will cramp

Dust will get into your eyes and your pants

And make your underwear filthy.

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Down in the mine it's dark as a night

Our helmet's too big and our boots are too tight

We drink beer all day and throw up all night

And we wake up and do it again.

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

My father was a miner. And my mother was a miner before him. And my uncle had sex with minors, but he's in prison now, it's a horrible thing.

Down the black hole we go every day

Diggin' the coal to earn our pay

Some of us straight and rest of us gay

But all of us stinkin' like men!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!

Hail the miner!
