I went tae a place Was took by ma mammy I didnae want tae The auld miners toun
She thought it best Ah didnae get it It didnae seem right the auld miners toun
Ah made a few pals It wisnae say bad Never hame though The auld miners toun
It wisnae say bad The folks aroond Salt o' the earth The auld mining toun.
Twa sisters came by Fae mithers new man It wisnae a' bad The auld miners toun
I loast mah mind six months was awa Ah couldnae settle The auld miners toun
Mah heid wisnae right Jist couldnae stay Went tae ma da In Auld Busby toun.
