lyrics

This is just a miner song
I’ve been down in the hole for way too long
Carving rocks but a handful of dirt is all I’ve got
No diamonds to show
No sparkle or glow
So I’m not coming home

It’s been years since I’ve been gone
I count the days with chalk on the wall
Through caverns and caves
Oh I try to make my way
To the treasure I’ll find
One day will be mine
And it’s gonna shine

So don’t you worry about me
Oh I’ll make my fortune you will see
And when the sun finally sets
And my life is out of regret
From what I find in the rough
Will finally be enough
That’s when I’ll be done

And I’m singing songs as I go on
It’s help to pass the time along
Oh I’m humming the tunes
That drown out the thought of you
Keeps my mind on the task
With each swing of my axe
I pray is my last

So don’t you worry about me
Oh I’ll make my fortune you will see
And when the sun finally sets
And my life is out of regret
From what I find in the rough
Will finally be enough
That’s when I’ll be done

This is just a miner song
I’ve been down in the hole for way too long
Carving rocks but a handful of dirt is all I’ve got
No diamonds to show
No sparkle or glow
So I’m not coming home
No diamonds to show
No sparkle or glow
So I’m not coming home
