Lyrics:

For As Long As I Can Remember Ive Worked Down In This Pit

but Today Its All Over For This Is The Day I Quit

im Gonna Take My Sweet Little Ginny And Make Her My Own

we Gonna Move Down In The Valley And Built Ourselves A Home

this Is The Last Day In The Mines

[ Guitar ]

well I Swing That Pick Move That Shovel And Time Goes So Slow

i Can Hardly Wait For My Boss To Tell Me That Its Time To Go

up At The Top I Know My Ginny Is Waiting Patiently

in Just A Few Minutes Ill Be There With Her And From The Mines Be Free

this Is The Last Day In The Mines

[ Guitar ]

but Wait A Minute Whats That Rumble Way Back In The Ground

good Lord Its A Cave In And The Rocks Are A Fallin All Around

now The Timbers Are Breakin And The Rats Are Runnin And I Can Hardly See

inside My Chest Theres A Mighty Burnin And My Strenght Is Leavin Me

this Is The Last Day In The Mines

[ Guitar ]

beneath These Rocks And Timbers And With My Strenght All Gone

my Thoughts Turn To Ginny I Must Leave Her All Alone

i Know Theyll Try To Save Me But They Gonna Be Too Late

for Over That River Through That Valley I See Heavens Gates

this Is The Last Day In The Mines

oh This Is The Last Day In The Mines This Is The Last Day In The Mines
