[00:06.75]For as long as I can remember I've worked down in this pit
[00:11.88]But today it's all over for this is the day I quit
[00:16.98]I'm gonna take my sweet little Ginny and make her my own
[00:21.84]We gonna move down in the valley and built ourselves a home
[00:27.39]This is the last day in the mines
[00:34.83]Well I swing that pick move that shovel and time goes so slow
[00:40.11]I can hardly wait for my boss to tell me that it's time to go
[00:45.39]Up at the top I know my Ginny is waiting patiently
[00:50.43]In just a few minutes I'll be there with her and from the mines be free
[00:56.10]This is the last day in the mines
[01:03.78]But wait a minute what's that rumble way back in the ground
[01:09.27]Good Lord it's a cave in and the rocks are a fallin' all around
[01:13.80]Now the timbers are breakin' and the rats are runnin' and I can hardly see
[01:18.99]Inside my chest there's a mighty burnin' and my strenght is leavin' me
[01:24.75]This is the last day in the mines
[01:32.10]Beneath these rocks and timbers and with my strenght all gone
[01:37.35]My thoughts turn to Ginny I must leave her all alone
[01:42.54]I know they'll try to save me but they gonna be too late
[01:47.64]For over that river through that valley I see heaven's gates
[01:53.28]This is the last day in the mines
[01:57.84]Oh this is the last day in the mines this is the last day in the mines
