Not Far Away Songtext
von Yonder Mountain String Band

There′s a deep dark hole in the mountain
Where the devil sleeps all the time
Guarding his gold from the boys young and old
From the men who worked in the mine
From the men who worked in the mine
There's a deep dark hole in the mountain
Where we shovel and pick every day
Stealing his gold, yeah, the boys young and old
They′re gone but not far away
They're gone but not far away
Poor devil's dream in the mountain
Hauling it down to the mill
Day after day, drawing our pay From the deep dark hole in the hill
From the deep dark hole in the hill
There′s a deep dark hole in the mountain
That last shot was a bum
Let′s smoke her out, boys, and roll her up
And blow her to kingdom come
We'll blow her to kingdom come
Poor devil′s dream in the mountain
Hauling it down to the mill
Day after day, drawing our pay
From the deep dark hole in the hill
From a deep dark hole in the hill
