duw it’s hard - max boyce lyrics
in our little valley
they closed the colliery down
and the pithead baths is a supermarket now
empty gurneys red with rust
roll to rest admist the dust
and the pithead baths is a supermarket now
’cause it’s hard
duw it’s hard
it’s harder than they will ever know
and it’s they must take the blame
the price of coal’s the same
but the pithead baths is a supermarket now
they came down here from england
because our outputs low
briefcasеs full of bank clerks
that had not never been bеlow
and they’ll close the valley’s oldest mine
pretending that they’re sad
but don’t you worry b*tty bach
we’re really very glad
’cause it’s hard
duw it’s hard
harder than they will ever know
and it’s they must take the blame
for the price of coal’s the same
but the pithead baths is a supermarket now
my clean clothes locker’s empty now
i’ve thrown away the key
and i’ve sold my boots and m*ffler
and my lampcheck 153
but i can’t forget the times we had
the laughing midst the fear
’cause everytime i cough i get
a mining souvenir
’cause it’s hard
duw it’s hard
harder than they will ever know
and it’s they must take the blame
the price of coal’s the same
but the pithead baths is a supermarket now
i took my old helmet home with me
filled it full of earth
and i planted little flowers there
they grew for all their worth
and it’s hanging in the glasshouse now
a living memory
reminding me they could have grown
in vases over me
’cause it’s hard
duw it’s hard
it’s harder than they will ever know
and it’s they must take the blame
the price of coal’s the same
but the pithead baths is a supermarket now
but i know the local magistrate
she’s got a job for me
though it’s only counting b*ttons
in the local factory
we get coffee breaks and coffee breaks
coffee breaks and tea
and now i know those dusty mines
have seen the last of me
’cause it’s hard
duw it’s hard
harder than they will ever know
and if ham was underground
would it be twelve bob a pound
the pithead baths is a supermarket now
aye the pithead baths it’s a supermarket now
