   D 
My daddy was a miner 
          C 
Said that there was nothing finer 
        G            C                D 
Than an Irishman who worked an honest day 

From Steamboat Row, in rain or shine 
     C 
He'd make his way down into the mine 
 G              C     
Along the dusty road he'd travel
