Unknown Artists/Songs On Muzikum - The Coal And Albert Berry (gezongen door/sung by Gary & Vera Aspey) lyrics

Your rating:

To the coal walked Albert Berry, drill of iron in his hand
Off to fight another battle for the people of this land

Said the coal to Albert Berry, ''Forty years you've been a man
You've took away the best part of me.  Today I'll kill you if I can''

Albert took his drill of iron, and he drilled himself a hole
''For forty years you've tried to kill me.'' said Albert Berry to the coal

Said the coal to Albert Berry, ''I have scarred your back with blue
And your lungs are black and tattered, today I'll make an end of you!''

Albert took the shot and wire and plunged them deep into the hole
''Now do your worst you black old devil.'' said Albert Berry to the coal

Shouted the coal to Albert Berry, as Albert pushed the plunger deep
''I will make your wife a widow!  I will make your children weep!''

A ton of dirt flew down the tunnel as Albert crouched into a hole
''So you didn't get me this time.'' said Albert Berry to the coal

Albert stepped into the tunnel and he did not hear the sound
As a ton of dirt and rubble crushed Albert Berry to the ground

Then said the coal to Albert Berry as Albert's blood seeped in the floor
''Men have always won the battles, but I always win the war!''

Then said the ghost of Albert Berry out of every bag of coal
''There'll be other Albert Berry's'' said Albert Berry to the coal
