Last Day in the Mines - Dave Dudley
For as long as I can remember
I've worked down in this pit
But today it's all over
For this is the day I quit
I'm gonna take my sweet
Little Ginny and make her my own
We will move down in the valley
And built ourselves a home
This is the last day in the mines
Well I swing that pick move
That shovel and time goes so slow
I can hardly wait for
My boss to tell me that it's time to go
Up at the top I know my
Ginny is waiting patiently
In just a few minutes
I'll be there with her
And from the mines be free
This is my last day in the mines
Wait a minute what's that
Rumble way back in the ground
Good Lord it's a cave in
And the rocks are a fallin' all around
Now the timbers are breakin'
And the rats are runnin' and I can hardly see
Inside my chest there's a mighty
Burnin' and my strenght is leavin' me
This is the last day in the mines
For over that river through
That valley I see heaven's gates
This is my last day in the mines
This is my last day in the mines
Oh This is my last day in the mines
