The Dream Of The Miner's Child
Lyricist:Andrew Jenkings
A miner was leaving his home for his work When he heard his little child scream He went to the side of the little girl's bed She said, 'Daddy, I've had such a dream'
Oh, daddy, don't go to the mines today For dreams have so often come true My daddy, my daddy, please, don't go away For I never could live without you
Then smiling and stroking the little girl's face He was turning away from her side Then she threw her small arms around her daddy's neck She gave him a kiss and then cried
I dreamed that the mines were all flaming with fire And the men all fought for their lives Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Just then the scene changed then the mouth of the mines Was covered with sweethearts and wives
Oh, daddy, don't go to the mines today For dreams have so often come true My daddy, my daddy, please, don't go away For I never could live without you
Go down to the village and tell all your friends That as sure as the bright stars do shine There is something that's going to happen today Please, daddy, don't go to the mines
Oh, daddy, don't go to the mines today For dreams have so often come true My daddy, my daddy, please, don't go away For I never could live without you
