Durban Deep Lyrics
I won't see you 'til Christmas
I breathe coal dust, I get blisters
But the foreman, he don't worry
He say, "Work boy, there's no hurry"Don't that big red sun
Look a lot like fire?
When you come out of the ground
After forty eight hoursGoing down down down down down
Going down in Durban deep
Going down down down down down
There's no mercy in my sleep
I just hear that drill and hammer
I feel the killin' heat
Going two miles down to the heart
Of Durban deepI was born on Amen corner
I pound rock face, I get lonely
But my family, they go hungry
Sill the boss man he call us lazyDon't the old blue Heaven
Look a lot like your eyes
When you're blinded by the brightness
Of the Transvaal skyGoing down down down down down
Going down in Durban deep
Going down down down down down
There's no mercy in my sleep
I just hear that drill and hammer
I feel the killin' heat
Going two miles down to the heart
Of Durban deepGoing down down down down down
Going down in Durban deep
Going down down down down down
There's no mercy in my sleep
I just hear that drill and hammer
I feel the killin' heat
Going two miles down to the heart
Of Durban deepD-D-Durban
