And what will I tell his dear mother at home? And it's what will I tell to my poor heart that's dying? My heart that's surely dying since my darling is gone Say, did you see him walking? it was early this morning He passed by your house on his way to the coal He was tall, he was slender, and his blue eyes so tender His occupation was miner, West Virginia his home @work @mine Copyright Jean Ritchie filename[ WVMINING MC ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: What A Friend We Have In Rhoda, What Can A Young Lassie, What Child Is This, What Kind Of Shoes You Gwine To Wear, What Was I Thinking, Whatll We Do With The Babyo, Whats The Life Of A Man, Wheel Of Fortune, When A Dog Smiles, When Cockleshells Turn Silver Bells Waly Waly, When Ere You Make A Promise, When First We Met, When Fortune Turns The Wheel, When I Am An Old Woman, When I First Came To This Land, When I Look Tae Yon High Hills, When I Was A Young Man, When I Was Noo But Sweet Sixteen, When Im Gone, When Its Springtime In Alaska, When Jesus Wept Round, When Johnny Comes Marching Home, When Joness Ale Was New 3, When My Blue Moon Turns To Gold Again, When My Father Called, When Pat Came Over The Hill, When She Cam Ben She Bobbed, When Sherman Marched Down To The Sea, When That I Was A Little Tiny Boy, When The Ice Worms Nest Again, When The King Enjoys His Own Again, When The Ship Comes In, When This Cruel War Is Over, When You And I Were Young Maggie, When You Were Sweet Sixteen, When Your Bells Have Turned Green, Where Am I To Go, Where Is My Sailor Boy, Where The River Shannon Flows, Where Theres Rest For Horse And Man, Which Side Are We On, Which Side Are You On, Whip Jamboree, Whiskey For My Johnny, Whiskey In The Jar, Whiskey O John Rise Her Up, Whiskey On A Sunday, Whistle, White Cockade, White House Blues, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
