Johnny Cash - Dark As A Dungeon Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Oh come all you young fellers so young and so fine
  • Seek not your fortune in a dark dreary mine
  • It'll form as a habit and seep in your soul
  • Till the stream of your blood runs as black as the coal
  • Where it's dark as a dungeon damp as the dew danger is double pleasures are few
  • Where the rain never falls the sun never shines
  • It's a dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
  • Well it's many a man that I've seen in my day
  • (uh huh no laughin' during this song please it's bein' recorded)
  • Like a fiend with his dope and a drunkard with his wine
  • A man will have lust for the lure of the mine
  • And pray when I'm dead and my ages shall roll
  • That my body would blacken and turn into coal
  • Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home and pity the miner digging my bones
  • Where it's dark as a dungeon...
