School Days Over

Lyrics

[Chorus] Schooldays over, come on then John Time to be getting your pit boots on On with your sark and the moleskin trousers It's time you were on your way Time you were learning the pitman's job And earning the pitman's pay [Verse 1] Come on then Jim, it's time to go Time you were working down below Time to be handling a pick and shovel You start at the pits today Time you were learning the collier's job And earning the collier's pay [Verse 2] Come on then Dai, it's almost light Time you were off to the anthracite The morning mist is on the valley It's time you were on your way Time you were learning the miner's job And earning the miner's pay [Chorus] Schooldays over, come on then John Time to be getting your pit boots on On with your sark and the moleskin trousers It's time you were on your way Time you were learning the pitman's job And earning the pitman's pay
