Come on you muckin' slushers,|You jack leg drillers and blasters,|The price of Uranium is up and there's money to make!||Come on ya big rock bolters,|Who answer to the name of 'miner',|This old boom town is still around,|On the shores of Elliot Lake.||Time cards in and out, up and down cages,|Gonna make a heaven outta hell earned wages;|Come on clerky, pay me now!|I got eighteen holes a-goin' 'pow, pow, pow!'|And there ain't no music finer,|She's a damn good song for a miner, |A damn good song for a miner.||When it's daylight on the townsite, |And midnight away down under,|I can hear the shift boss say 'she's a muckin' out well!'|With hard hats, boots and oilers,|We're off to scale the stope, boys;|Goodbye town we're a goin' down,|To the belly of a man made hell.||Time cards in and out, up and down cages,|Gonna make a heaven outta hell earned wages;|Come on clerky, pay me now!|I got eighteen holes a-goin' 'pow, pow, pow!'|And there ain't no music finer,|She's a damn good song for a miner, |A damn good song for a miner.||In the afternoon we'll cage up, |To the surface and home to supper,|But we'll all meet at the Algoden later tonight;|Where the wine and the beer and the singin',|Kinda gets a good miner swingin';|And we'll dance around this whole damn town 'til the sun comes shinin' bright. ||Time cards in and out, up and down cages,|Gonna make a heaven outta hell earned wages;|Come on clerky, pay me now!|I got eighteen holes a-goin' 'pow, pow, pow!'|And there ain't no music finer,|She's a damn good song for a miner, |A damn good song for a miner.||Come on you muckin' slushers,|You jack leg drillers and blasters,|The price of Uranium is up and there's money to make!||Come on ya big rock bolters,|Who answer to the name of 'miner',|This old boom town is still around,|On the shores of Elliot Lake.||Time cards in and out, up and down cages,|Gonna make a heaven outta hell earned wages;|Come on clerky, pay me now!|I got eighteen holes a-goin' 'pow, pow, pow!'|And there ain't no music finer,|She's a damn good song for a miner, |A damn good song for a miner.||One hell of a song for a miner!|
