A Miner's Life
A miner's life is like a sailorOn board a ship across the wavesEvery day his life's in danger,Many ventures being braveWatch the rocks, they're falling daily,Careless miners always failKeep your hand upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scaleUnion miners stand togetherDo not heed the Coal Board's taleKeep your hand upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scaleYou've been docked and docked again, boys,You've been loading three for oneWhat's the use in all your workingWhen your mining days are done?Worn out shoes and worn miners,Blackened lungs and faces paleOh keep your hand upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scaleUnion miners stand togetherLetras de cancionesDo not heed the Coal Board's taleKeep your hand upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scaleIn conclusion, bear in memory,Keep this password in your mindWorker's strength cannot be brokenWhen unions be combinedStand up tall and stand together,Victory for you prevailOh keep your hands upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scaleUnion miners stand togetherDo not heed the Coal Board's taleKeep your hand upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scaleUnion miners stand togetherDo not heed the Coal Board's taleKeep your hand upon your wagesAnd your eye upon the scale
