Another song from the same great gathering that I'd like some help with (words very fuzzy on my tape) has this chorus, in part:

'Miners stand together, do not . . . . .
Keep your hand upon your wages and your eye upon the scales . . . "


Any suggestions?

Again , a quick use of the 'Search' option brings up a SCAD of threads and the lyrics in DT as Miners Lifeguard

Sart counting..I'm sure Dr Price will be along soon with the "correct" words and the history.

There's no need to wait for anyone else; Terry's link will get you to the song and threads.

The tune was also used for The H Bomb's Thunder by John Brunner, also in the DT - Tom
