Nothing they could do but sit down there with the black coal all around them,
And the water rose so quick and cold, an unlikely place to drown.
Nine in the mine, trapped down below
Down, down, down in the ground
And this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my family I'm buried alive
They held their heads up high as they struggled hard to breath
And asked the lord to open his arms for the nine souls he'd receive
Nine in the mine, trapped down below
Down, down, down in the ground
And this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my family I'm buried alive
They latched themselves together so in death they might be found
And prayed there for miracle some twenty-four stories down
Nine in the mine, trapped down below
Down, down, down in the ground
And this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my family I'm buried alive
Down, down, down in the ground
