Lyrics A Miner's Life - Billy Bragg
A
miner's
life
is
like
a
sailor
on
board
a
ship
to
cross
the
waves
Every
day
his
life's
in
danger,
many
ventures
being
brave
Watch
the
rocks,
they're
falling
daily,
careless
miners
always
fail
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
and
your
eye
upon
the
scale
Union
miners,
stand
together
Do
not
heed
the
Coal
Board's
tales
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
And
your
eye
upon
the
scale
You've
been
docked
and
docked
again,
boys,
you've
been
loading
three
to
one
What's
the
use
in
all
your
working
when
your
mining
days
are
done?
Worn
out
shoes
and
worn
out
miners,
blackened
lungs
and
faces
pale
Oh
keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
and
your
eye
upon
the
scale
Union
miners,
stand
together
Do
not
heed
the
Coal
Board's
tales
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
And
your
eye
upon
the
scale
In
conclusion,
bear
in
memory,
keep
this
watchword
in
your
mind
Worker's
strength
cannot
be
broken
when
in
unions
we
combine
Stand
up
tall
and
stand
together,
victory
for
you
prevails
Oh
keep
your
hands
upon
your
wages
and
your
eye
upon
the
scale
Union
miners,
stand
together
Do
not
heed
the
Coal
Board's
tales
Keep
your
hand
upon
your
wages
And
your
eye
upon
the
scale
