Durban Deep |
I won’t see you until Christmas |
I breathe coal dust, I get blisters |
But the foreman he don’t worry |
He say work, boy, there’s no hurry |
Don’t that big red sun |
Look a lot like fire |
When you come out of the ground |
After 48 hours |
Going down down down down down |
Going down in Durban deep |
Going down down down down down |
There’s no mercy in my sleep |
I just hear that drill and hammer |
I feel the killing heat |
Going two miles down to the heart |
Of Durban deep |
I was born on amen corner |
I pound rock face, I get lonely |
But my family, they go hungry |
Sill the boss man he call us lazy |
Don’t the old blue heaven |
Look a lot like your eyes |
When you’re blinded by the brightness |
Of the Transvaal sky |
Going down down down down down |
Going down in Durban deep |
Going down down down down down |
There’s no mercy in my sleep |
I just hear that drill and hammer |
I feel the killing heat |
Going two miles down to the heart |
Of Durban deep |
Going down down down down down |
Going down in Durban deep |
Going down down down down down |
There’s no mercy in my sleep |
I just hear that drill and hammer |
I feel the killing heat |
Going two miles down to the heart |
Of Durban deep |
