The Garriongill.<\/strong> (Billy Stewart)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re up in the morning with the wind and the snaw<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re sorry to leave our warm miners raw<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we must make our way to the top o’ the hill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To start our day’s work in the Garriongill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chorus <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Garriongill the Garriongill <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we work underground in the Garriongill <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

…….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We stand in the gage as we’re lowered doon the shaft<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re miners tagether wi the crack and the laugh<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We look after each other in hole black as hell<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we work underground in the Garriongill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

…….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we split a face each miner is keen <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To dig out his share o the coal frae the seem<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And we hope that the rich seem of coal is there still<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When our son’s come tae work in the Garriongill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

……..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each man in the village relies on the coal<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a thing that keeps each of us off the dole<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For our wifes and our family’s will work wi a will <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deep underground in th Gariongill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

………<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And when our shifts ended it’s homeward we go<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To wash off the dust that we;ve gathered below<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have time to ourselves and strong beer will spill<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And forget all the while the Garriongill.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
