Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: One Miner's Life (Ed Pickford)
Subject: A Gaughan/Macoll song lyric
Hi I've been lurking with intent for some time now. You seem like a helpful community and I was wondedring if you could help me trace some lyrics.

Many moons ago I heard a song I would like to do by Dick Gaughan but could have been a Ewan Macoll song
Chorus goes something like this:

Whi kens what your crying for
Whi kens what made us so poor
Whi kens what your going to do
Whi kens whats in store for you

All about coal mining and the lack thereof.
If anyone KENS! the title/artist of this song I would be eternally grateful If however you knows the lyrics and could be arsed typing them out for me I would be a happy chappy.


Also (he said pushing his luck..) does anyone know where I can get the lyrics for Comming down in the rain sung by whats-her-face and the blue moon orchestra.

Coming Down in the Rain (Mondlock)
