Quecreek Flood Lyrics

	作曲 : Mitchell
	It was late in July
	At the Quecreek coal mine
	When the water came rolling down
	As black as bad blood
	To where nine good men stood
	Shuddering, shivering
	And shouting for deliverance
	Sure they would drown
	And safe above ground
	The boss paced around
	Surveying the scene of the flood
	After chasing away
	The UNWA
	So inspections were cheap
	He didn't lose sleep
	He just stood in the sun
	What could we have done
	He said this was an act of God
	And the President came
	From his party campaign
	To shake every hero's right hand
	After slashing the funds
	For the miners' black lungs
	And the regulations
	God bless our nation
	He said united we stand
	And the anchor girl cried
	When the miner's survived
	She lauded her god in his glory
	And the tired camera man
	Packed up the van
	And they wore the same frown
	As they drove out of town
	Where they found the next sellable story
	And we who were raised
	By invisible hands
	And we who were raised
	On government lies
	The prodigal children
	Of the promised land
	Who's gonna open our eyes
