Gaelic Storm - Down Underground lyrics
[Gaelic Storm - Down Underground lyrics]
Got my Jaffas and my flask of tea
Sucking death with every breath
Tryin' to feed my family
No sanctuary for this yellow canary
Stuck in a black iron cage
I'm blind as a mole in this bottomless hole
I'm diggin' my own grave
I'm goin' down, underground
Down, underground down, underground
Down, down, down they say, walk away
And you'll get better pay
I don't know what I should do
Should I cross the line
Like some friends of mine
They were hungry too
Those union joes in their spotless clothes
Don't mean nothin' to me
I"m sick and tired of stokin' the fires
For them or this company
When the siren sounds and the sun goes down
I finally get to wash my face
The wheels don't stop
They spin 'round the clock
They send my son down to take my place
(He's) goin' down, underground
Down underground down underground
Down down down
