Lyrics
There was a time when the strike was on I thought that we might win Even after we'd been called The enemy within But the tide just turned against us It seems that blood and coal Were bound in hellish partnership To keep us from our goal To keep us from our goal There was a moment as we marched back With the colliery band in front Some said we'd been defeated But it felt as if we'd won All on account of the cheering The music and the crowd Back to the pit with tears and smiles Bloodied but unbowed Bloodied but unbowed There were months as the scars healed up Things didn't seem so bad Thursday nights in the band room And a few beers with the lads I told our lass it'd be all right As hope replaced despair And the band pumped reassurance Into the summer air Into the summer air
