Coppermine
|
|
Coppermine, oh coppermine
|
|
My great-great grandfolk on my father's side
|
|
used to work,in a coppermine - oh yeah
|
|
A penny here, a penny there
|
|
won't you drop one in my waterwell
|
|
The women lived in Maine* my friend
|
|
The men they lived underground
|
|
Copperwire oh copperwire
|
|
clever clever copperwire
|
|
Wrapped in black rubber
|
|
never knew it was a miner's manner
|
|
I loved so well
|
|
A penny here, a penny there
|
|
won't you drop one in my waterwell
|
|
The women lived in Maine my friend
|
|
The men they lived underground
|
|
* My sincere apologies to the mining communities of Michigan. I thought I heard my daddy say Maine.
