Dropkick Murphys

Dropkick Murphys are an American punk rock band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts in 1996. The band was initially signed to independent punk record label Hellcat Records, releasing five albums for the label, and making a name for themselves locally through constant touring and yearly St. Patrick's Day week shows, held in and around Boston. The 2004 single "Tessie" became the band's first and one of their biggest charting singles to date. The band's final Hellcat release, 2005's The Warrior's Code, included "I'm Shipping Up to Boston", which was featured in the Academy Award-winning movie The Departed and went on to become one of the band's biggest singles, one of their best-known songs, and an anthem for Boston sports teams. more »

Nothing they could do but sit down there with the black coal all around them,
And the water rose so quick and cold, an unlikely place to drown. 

Nine in the mine, trapped down below
Down, down, down in the ground 
And this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my family I'm buried alive 

They held their heads up high as they struggled hard to breath 
And asked the lord to open his arms for the nine souls he'd receive 

Nine in the mine, trapped down below
Down, down, down in the ground 
And this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my family I'm buried alive 

They latched themselves together so in death they might be found 
And prayed there for miracle some twenty-four stories down 

Nine in the mine, trapped down below
Down, down, down in the ground 
And this'll be the day I didn't kiss my wife goodbye, take care of my family I'm buried alive 

Down, down, down in the ground
