As I sat down one ev'nin
within a small caf‚
a fourty-year-old waitress
these words to me did say;

"I see you are a miner,
and not just a common bum,
for nobody but a miner
stirs his coffee with his thumb.

My lover was a miner,
there's none like him today.
If you poured whiskey on it
he would eat a bale of hay.

He set off for the Mizek
in freakin Kassak-stan,
said he had to see a banker
but I don't know 'bout that man.

I think it is the ladies
and the wild life of Sydney
that so distracts my lover
as to leave a girl like me.

And so you see before you
a broken-hearted gal.
Would you like to escort me,
or should I go with Al?"

As I had drunk my coffee
and seen this scene before
I very gently rose me
and snuck out the back door.

You see - I am a miner,
and only a miner knows
that major things or minor,
a miner comes back when he goes.
