Canary - Joy Williams

There’s a shadow hanging heavy

There’s a cold chill in my bones

It’s a steep road, and I am weary

It’s a long, long way from home

But I will not shut my eyes

No, I will not fall silent

Canary in the mine

Oh, I will, honey I will

I will sing

I will sing

There’s a madness in a cavern

There’s a darkness that can blind

Where it’s every man for himself

No one’s getting out alive

But I will not shut my eyes

No, I will not fall silent

Canary in the mine

Oh, I will, ooh, honey I will

I will sing

I will sing

Sing, sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing, canary, sing

Sing, sing, sing, come on

Sing, sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing, canary, sing

Oh, I will sing

I will sing

There’s a shadow hanging heavy

There’s a cold chill in my bones
