Close The Coalhouse Door |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s blood inside |
Blood from broken hands and feet |
Blood that’s dried of pitblack meat |
Blood from hearts that know no beat |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s blood inside |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s bones inside |
Mangled, splintered piles of bones |
Buried 'neath a mile of stones |
Not a soul to hear the groans |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s bones inside |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s bairns inside |
Bairns that had no time to hide |
Bairns who saw the blackness slide |
Bairns beneath the mountainside |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s bairns inside |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
And stay outside |
Geordie’s standing at the dole |
And Mrs Jackson, like a fool |
Complains about the price of coal |
Close the coalhouse door, lad |
There’s blood inside |
There’s bones inside |
There’s bairns inside |
So stay outside |
