Thread Name: Origins: Springhill Disaster/Ballad of Springhill
Subject: LYR REQ: Springhill disaster
I would like to know the lyrics of a song sung by The Dubliners - The title should be Springhill disaster; it tells about a disaster in a cave.

The lyrics starts with:

In the town of Springhill in Nova Scotia/down in the dark of the ?/there's blood on the coal and the miners lye/in roads that never saw sun nor sky...

My english is not good enough, soI cant understand the rest.

Thank you!
