[00:00:00] The Blackleg Miner - Steeleye Span

[00:00:00] Written by：Terry Woods

[00:00:00] It's in the evening after dark

[00:00:04] When the blackleg miner creeps to work

[00:00:09] With his moleskin pants and dirty shirt

[00:00:14] There goes the blackleg miner

[00:00:19] Well he grabs his duds and down he goes

[00:00:23] To hew the coal that lies below

[00:00:28] There's not a woman in this town row

[00:00:32] Will look at the blackleg miner

[00:00:58] Oh delaval is a terrible place

[00:01:01] They rub wet clay in the blackleg's face

[00:01:03] And around the heaps they run a foot race

[00:01:06] To catch the blackleg miner

[00:01:08] And divvnt gan near the seghill mine

[00:01:11] Across the way they stretch a line

[00:01:13] To catch the throat and break the spine

[00:01:16] Of the dirty blackleg miner

[00:01:38] They grab his duds and his picks as well

[00:01:40] They hoy him down to the pit of hell

[00:01:43] Down you go and fare yee well

[00:01:45] You dirty blackleg miner

[00:01:48] It's in the evening after dark

[00:01:50] When the blackleg miner creeps to work

[00:01:52] With his moleskin pants and dirty shirt

[00:01:55] There goes the blackleg miner

[00:02:17] So join the union while you may

[00:02:19] Don't wait 'til your dying day

[00:02:22] For that may not be far away

[00:02:27] You dirty blackleg miner
