Eight hour day lyrics
We're brave and gallant miner boys
who work down underground.
For courage and good nature,
no finer can be found.
We work both late and early
and get but little pay
To support our wives and children
in free Amerikay.
If Satan took the blacklegs,
I'm sure 'twould be no sin.
What peace and happiness 'twould be
for us poor workingmen.
Eight hours we'd have for working;
eight hours we'd have for play;
Eight hours we'd have for sleeping
in free Amerikay.
