School Days Over Songtext
von Dropkick Murphys

School days over, come on then, Jon
It′s time you were getting your pit boots on
On with your sark and moleskin trousers
It's time you were on your way
Time you were learning a pitman′s job
And earning a pitman's pay

Come on then, Jim, it's time to go
Time you were working down below
Time to be handling the pick and shovel
You start at the pit today
Time you were learning a collier′s job
And earning a collier′s pay


School days over, come on then, Jon
It's time you were getting your pit boots on
On with your sark and moleskin trousers
It′s time you were on your way
Time you were learning a pitman's job
And earning a pitman′s pay

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 a miner's job
And earning a miner's pay

School days over, come on then, Jon
It′s time you were getting your pit boots on
On with your sark and moleskin trousers
It′s time you were on your way
Time you were learning a pitman's job
And earning a pitman′s pay

School days over, come on now, Jon
Time you were getting your pit boots on
