Way down in old Nova Scotia |
| [00:25.797] |
Moose River it seems is the name |
| [00:30.567] |
Three Canadians on Easter Sunday |
| [00:35.588] |
To the tumbledown gold mine they came |
| [00:39.855] |
|
| [00:40.608] |
They descended the mine for inspection |
| [00:45.628] |
Never dreaming fate trailed them close by |
| [00:50.398] |
With a crash that gave them no warning |
| [00:55.418] |
Entombed in that mine there to die |
| [00:59.934] |
|
| [01:00.437] |
Brave men from all over the country |
| [01:05.458] |
Volunteered to give up their lives |
| [01:10.479] |
They worked with unceasing efforts |
| [01:15.247] |
It seemed that death they defied |
| [01:19.765] |
|
| [01:20.518] |
Long days and nights they had labored |
| [01:25.538] |
Turned back when great cave-ins fell |
| [01:30.559] |
While far below patiently waiting |
| [01:35.579] |
Three men were in one living Hell |
| [01:40.098] |
|
| [01:40.600] |
Many times turned back when near rescue |
| [01:45.620] |
They seen all was blocking their way |
| [01:50.641] |
With a prayer on their lips they worked onward |
| [01:55.661] |
We must win we must win pray we may |
| [02:00.180] |
|
| [02:00.682] |
On Sunday they got their first message |
| [02:05.701] |
From the men prisoned far far below |
| [02:10.721] |
Can you help us they heard the men calling |
| [02:15.742] |
Our sufferings God above only knows |
| [02:20.261] |
|
| [02:20.761] |
Next message filled all hearts with sorrow |
| [02:25.783] |
As they heard them say one pal is gone |
| [02:30.803] |
We are trying our best to hold on boys |
| [02:35.824] |
Do your best don't make it too long |
| [02:40.343] |
|
| [02:40.845] |
At last the great strain it was broken |
| [02:45.866] |
A miner out of breath brought the news |
| [02:50.887] |
We have won the great fight he was calling |
| [02:55.907] |
At last we have dug our way through |
| [03:00.426] |
|
| [03:00.927] |
That great fight against the Dark Angel |
| [03:05.947] |
It is one fighting heart all the way |
| [03:10.967] |
Still a tragedy came with the rescue |
| [03:15.988] |
From the tomb of those terrible days |
| [03:20.757] |
|
| [03:21.259] |
Now friends this story is ending |
| [03:26.280] |
With hardships of many a day |
| [03:31.301] |
But this rescue will go down in history |
| [03:36.322] |
And the gold mine down Moose River way |
