Dream of The Miner’s Child The Stanley Brothers

The miner was leaving his home for his work
He heard his little child scream
He went to the side of the little childs bed
Oh daddy I've had such a dream
Oh daddy don't go to the mines today
For dreams do so often come true
Oh daddy, dear daddy, please don't go away
I never could live without you
I dreamed that the mines were all ablazing with fire
The workers all fought for they're lives
Just then the scene changed and the mouth of the mine
Was covered with sweethearts and wives
Oh daddy don't go to the mines today
For dreams do so often come true
Oh daddy, dear daddy, please don't go away
I never could live without you
Go down to the village and tell all of our dear friends
As sure as the dry sun does shine
Theres something that going to happen today
Please daddy don't go to the mine
Oh daddy don't go to the mines today
For dreams do so often come true
Oh daddy, dear daddy, please don't go away
I never could live without you
