Dust in the air, all through the mine
It's concrete on your lungs and you're old before your time

Ye may walk on board a ship and you've gone to foreign lands
You may walk upon the farm and rub the dirt through your hands
Even in an office you can breath air fresh and fine
But you're coughing and you're spitting dust a' walking down the mine

Dust in the air, all through the mine
It's concrete on your lungs and you're old before your time

The coal seam's rich and gleaming high, it's far beneath the soil
Black gold is what they call it and it's won with sweat and toil
But when you shift is over, and you've gone to have your rest
You'll never get to spend black gold when it's lying on your chest

Dust in the air, all through the mine
It's concrete on your lungs and you're old before your time
