《Minner’s Song》歌词

[00:02:12] It happened an hour ago,

[00:02:12] Way down in this tunnel of coal,

[00:02:12] Gas caught fire from somebody's lamp.

[00:02:12] And the miners are choking in smoke.

[00:02:12] Goodbye to Dickie and Honey,

[00:02:12] Goodbye to the wife that I love.

[00:02:12] Lot of these men not coming home,

[00:02:12] Tonight when the work whistle blows.

[00:02:12] Dear sisters and brothers goodbye,

[00:02:12] Dear mother and father goodbye.

[00:02:12] My fingers are weak and I cannot write,

[00:02:12] Goodbye Centralia, goodbye.

[00:02:12] It looks like the end for me,

[00:02:12] And all of my buddies I see.

[00:02:12] We're all writing letters to children we love,

[00:02:12] Please carry our word to our wives.

[00:02:12] We, found a little place in the air,

[00:02:12] Crawled and ** ourselves here.

[00:02:12] But the smoke is bad and the fumes coming in,

[00:02:12] And the gas is burning my eyes.

[00:02:12] Dear sisters and brothers goodbye,

[00:02:12] Dear mother and father goodbye.

[00:02:12] My fingers are weak and I cannot write,

[00:02:12] Goodbye Centralia, goodbye.

[00:02:12] Forgive me for the things I done wrong,

[00:02:12] I love you lots more than you know.

[00:02:12] When the night whistle blows and I don't come home,

[00:02:12] Do all that you can to help mom.

[00:02:12] I can hear the moans and groans,

[00:02:12] More than a hundred good men.

[00:02:12] Just work and fight and try to see,

[00:02:12] That this never happens again.

[00:02:12] Dear sisters and brothers goodbye,

[00:02:12] Dear mother and father goodbye.

[00:02:12] My fingers are weak and I cannot write,

[00:02:12] Goodbye Centralia, goodbye.

[00:02:12] My eyes are blinded with fumes,

[00:02:12] But it sounds like the men are all gone,

[00:02:12] 'Cept Joe Valentini, Fred Gussler and George,

[00:02:12] Trapped down in this hell hole of fire.

[00:02:12] Please name our new baby Joe,

[00:02:12] So he'll grow up like big Joe.

[00:02:12] He'll work and he'll fight and he'll fix up the mines,

[00:02:12] So fire can't kill daddy no more.

[00:02:12] Dear sisters and brothers goodbye,

[00:02:12] Dear mother and father goodbye.

[00:02:12] My fingers are weak and I cannot write,

[00:02:12] Goodbye Centralia, goodbye.
