Rand Reynolds - In the Hole lyrics
I watched you from the window I saw you in the street You had heat on your heels, you ran To where the wives meet. I heard the bells ring All the shrieking in the air Whistles and sirens Coming out of nowhere. There’s a fire in the hole Got thunder in the coal 200 men down below There’s a fire in the hole. I stood on that pyre I heard the screaming underground Men clawing to the top It was a hellish sound. Flesh roasting in my nose Floating up to the sky All the mothers and their children Crying Daddy’s still alive. Even the angels couldn’t find them Swallowed in the earth I saw my father dragged out, black and burned He was one of the first. And I said a little pray for the men You know, it was just their time Then I said a little prayer for myself I’d never set foot in a coal mine. |
