Dream of a Miner's Child

Lyrics

A miner was leaving his home for his work
 When he heard his little child scream
 He went to the side of the little child's bed
 She said, "Daddy, I've had such a dream"
 "Oh daddy, don't go to the mines today
 For dreams have so often come true
 Oh daddy, oh daddy, please don't go away
 For I never could live without you"
 "I dreamed that the mines were all flaming with fire
 And the miners all fought for their lives
 Just then the scene changed and the mouth of the mine
 Was covered with sweethearts and wives"
 "Go down to the village and tell all your friends
 That as sure as the bright sun does shine
 There's something a-going to happen there today
 Oh daddy, don't go to the mine"
