OEmh, it's in the eveniDng after dark
WEmhen the blackleg miner cDreeps to work
HiEms moleskin pants and dDirty shirt
ThEmere goes the Dblackleg minEmer
EmWell, he grabs his duds and dDown he goes
TEmo hew the coal thDat lies below
TEmhere's not a girl in Dthis town row
WiEmll look at the bDlackleg minEmer
Oh, EmDelaval is a terDrible place
ThEmey rub wet clay in the blDackleg's face
AnEmd around the heaps thDey run a race
To Emcatch the blaDckleg mEminer
So diEmvvent gan near the DSeghill mine
AcEmross the way they stDretch a line
To caEmtch the throat and brDeak the spine
Of tEmhe dirty blackDleg miEmner
So he gEmrabbed his duds, his pickDs as well
And thEmey hoy them down the Dpit of hell
Down Emyou go and farDe you well

Oh, Emit's in the evening afDter dark
When Emthe blackleg miner creDeps to work
His mEmoleskin pants and dDirty shirt
There Emgoes the blDackleg mEminer

Don't Emwait till your dyDing day
For tEmhat may not be fDar away
You dEmirty blackDleg minEmer
You dEmirty blaDckleg miEmner
