The Kingston Trio - Blackleg miner

Oh, it's in the evening, ^Dafter dark A ^Emblackleg miner ^Dgoes to work With his ^Emmoleskin pants and a ^Ddirty shirt There ^Emgoes the ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Oh, he takes his pick and ^Ddown he goes To ^Emhew the coal that ^Dlies below There's ^Emnot a woman in this town ^Drow Would ^Emlook at a ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Oh, it's in the evening, ^Dafter dark The ^Emblackleg miner ^Dgoes to work With his ^Emmoleskin pants and a ^Ddirty shirt There ^Emgoes the ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Ah, Deleval is a terrible ^Dplace They ^Emrub wet clay in a ^Dblackleg's face '^EmRound the pits they ^Drun a footrace To ^Emcatch the ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Now don't go near the ^DSeghill mine A^Emcross the top they've ^Dstretched a line To ^Emcatch the throat and ^Dbreak the spine Of the ^Emdirty ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Oh, it's in the evening, ^Dafter dark The ^Emblackleg miner ^Dgoes to work With his ^Emmoleskin pants and his ^Ddirty shirt There ^Emgoes the ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Now take this pick and ^Dduds as well And ^Emhurl them down the pit of ^DHell So ^Emoff you go and ^Dfare you well You ^Emdirty ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Now join the union ^Dwhile you may Don't ^Emwait to your ^Ddying day That ^Emmay not be so ^Dfar away You ^Emdirty ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Oh, it's in the evening, ^Dafter dark The ^Emblackleg miner ^Dgoes to work With his ^Emmoleskin pants and his ^Ddirty shirt There ^Emgoes the ^Dblackleg ^Emminer

Oh, it's in the evening, ^Dafter dark The ^Emblackleg miner ^Dgoes to work With his ^Emmoleskin pants and his ^Ddirty shirt There ^Emgoes the ^Dblackleg ^Emminer
