New York Mining Disaster 1941

In the event of something happening to me There is something I would like you all to see
It’s just a photograph of someone that I knew
Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it’s like on the outside?
Don’t go talkin' too loud, you’ll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones
I keep straining my ears to hear a sound
Maybe someone is digging underground
Or have they given up and all gone home to bed
Thinking those that once existed must be dead?
Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it’s like on the outside?
Don’t go talkin' too loud, you’ll cause a landslide, Mr. Jones
