Down in the Mine by Catherine Palmer Paton
Down, down, down in the mine
Down in the mine below
Down, down, down in the mine
Cries the anguished soul
Set me free from this darkness
Set me free into the light
Set me free from this longest, lonesome,
Tiresome, troublin' sight
Lost under earth and stone
Lost, forsaken, alone
Far from the ones I love and
The place that I call home
Set me free from this darkness
Set me free into the light
Set me free from this longest, lonesome,
Tiresome, troublin' night
Gone are my joy and hope
Gone are the ones I love
