this is called springhill mining disaster.

In the town of springhill nova scotia
Down in the dark of the c__berland mine
Theres blood on the coal, and the miners lie
In roads that never saw sun or sky
Roads--

In the town of springhill
They dont sleep easy
Often the earth will tremble and roll
When the earth is restless
Miners die

Bone and blood is the price of coal
Bone and blood is the price of coal

Listen to the shouts of the black faced miner
Listen to the call of the rescue team
We have no water, light or bread
So were living on songs and hope instead
Living on songs and hope instead

In the town of springhill nova scotia
Down in the dark of the c__berland mine
Theres blood on the coal, and the miners lie
In roads that never saw sun or sky
Roads that never saw sun nor sky

In the town of springhill
Dont sleep easy
Often the earth will tremble and roll
When the earth is restless
Miners die

Bone and blood is the price of coal
Bone and blood is the price of coal
Bone and blood is the price of coal
