Light the Fuse Lyrics
"Light the fuse!
Get back!"
I heard the mine boss say
"We've gotta save the lives of a hundred men today"
I heard the whistle and we knew what it meant
I had to hurry 'cause there'd been an accident
There was a cave-in down in shaft number nine
And men were dyin' way down deep in that mine
"Light the fuse!
Get back!"
I heard the mine boss say
"We've gotta save the livеs of a hundred men today"
I saw a cryin' woman and I heard hеr bravely say
"He's all I've got so please, dig him out that grave
Every little one's home asleep at bed
I can't go home and tell them their daddy's dead"
"Light the fuse!
Get back!"
I heard the mine boss say
"We've gotta save the lives of a hundred men today"
"Light the fuse!
Get back!"
I heard the mine boss say
"We've gotta save the lives of a hundred men today"
I won't forget that night if I live a hundred years
And how those brave men died and left their women in tears
Grown up are the little ones that were fast asleep
Now they take their daddy's place
Down in that mine so deep
"Light the fuse!
Get back!
Find a place to hide!
Don't forget that fateful day our daddy died"
"Light the fuse!
Get back!
Find a place to hide!
Don't forget that fateful day our daddy died"
