Glen Campbell Dark As A Dungeon Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come listen, you fellas, so young and so fine
And seek not your fortune in the dark, dreary mines
It'll form as a habit and seep in your soul
Till the stream of your blood is as black as the coal

[Chorus]
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where troubles are double and pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine [Verse 2]
Well, I hope when I'm gone and the ages shall roll
My body will blacken and turn into coal
Then I'll look from the door of my heavenly home
And pity the miners diggin' my bones

[Chorus]
It's dark as a dungeon and damp as the dew
Where troubles are double and pleasures are few
Where the rain never falls and the sun never shines
It's dark as a dungeon way down in the mine
