[E]
Oh, come all you young fellers, [A] so young and so [B]
fine,
[E] And seek not your fortune [A] in the dark, [E] dreary mine.
It'll form as a habit [A] and seep in [B] your soul, [E] Till the stream of your blood [A] runs as black
as the [E] coal.
[B] Where it's dark as a dungeon, [A] damp [E] as the dew,
[B] Danger is double [A] and pleasures [E] are few.
Where the rain never falls, [A] the sun never [B]
shines,
[E] It's dark as a dungeon [A] way down in [E] the mine.

[E] That would live just to labor [A] his whole life [E]
away.
Like a fiend with his dope, [A] like a drunkard with [B] his wine,
[E] A man will have lust [A] for the lure of [E] the mine.
And I pray when I'm dead [A] and the ages [B] shall roll,
[E] That my body would blacken [A] and turn into [E] coal.
Then I'd look from the door of [A] my heavenly [B]
home,
[E] And pity the miner [A] digging my [E]
bone.

damp [E] as the dew,
