HEROES OF THE PIT
There are songs about our Soldiers,
the men who guard our land,
There are songs about our Navy,
a gallant hearty band,
But what about our miners
Those heroes down be-low,
Who yield to none in valour,
those men who make no show.
For its down among the coal
that you´ll find the purest gold,
Great Britain‘s best we call them,
those miners strong and bold,
Heroes of the pit are they.
Yes, heroes true and brave,
Aye! heroes ever ready
A comrades life to save.
.
CHORUS
When the Davy lamp burns blue,
They are dauntless brave and true,
You´ll hear their steady tramp
Through the deadly after damp
For they´ve gone to seek a mate,
Tho its death may be their fate,
Yes its heroes that they are
With their shovel, pick and bar
And when we are safe on land,
They’re at work that noble band,
To rescue one from death,
They will fight with baited breath,
There’s no quitting of their post
If there is one poor soul still lost
They are heroes every one,
Though they´ve neither sword nor gun
