In the coalmine a fire's burning Strange 'cause there ain't no coal they're turning It ain't no blackened, poison gold To seek in those rocks of mould But in the coalmine, a fire's burning there
We're here to see you dance and We're here to get in trance when Red lights are burning bright and You're the mistress of the night
Outside the mine a girl is weeping And next to her a dog is sleeping Money in the pocket and a dogbone Little baby and Sandman on a cold stone Outside the mine, a girl is weeping there
We're here to see you dance and We're here to get in trance when Red lights are burning bright and You're the mistress of the night
