Well I got off the train one evening in a little mining town
那晚我下了火车，来到一个小矿镇
I started walking up the main street when the sun was going down
我沿着主街走着，太阳正缓缓西沉
When I heard some voices singing
忽然听到歌声传来
So I went to see what for
我便前去一探究竟
Might just be a birthday party
或许是一场生日派对
And it might be room for just one more
或许还能再容下一人
But it was miners and their families
但那是矿工和他们的家人
They had left the mine that day
他们那天离开了矿井
Walked out for safe conditions
为了安全的工作环境而罢工
On strike for decent pay
为了体面的薪酬而抗争
And they sang about their struggle
他们歌唱着他们的斗争
And their spirit never failed
他们的精神永不熄灭
Keep your hand upon the dollar and your eye upon the scale
手握金钱，眼盯公平
Union miners stand together
工会矿工团结一致
Heed no operator's tale
不听管理者的谎言
Keep your hand upon the dollar and your eye upon the scale

All at once police came running
突然间警察蜂拥而至
They came running everywhere
他们从四面八方赶来
They broke up that miner's meeting

And they carried everyone to jail

But the miners kept on singing and they sang the whole night through
但矿工们依然坚持歌唱，整夜不停
When the sun rose in the morning I had learned that miners song

Now the judge he asked the police captain
法官问警察队长
What's that red cat doin' here
那个红帽子的家伙在这里做什么
Get all the reds off the streets
把所有的红色分子从街上清除
Sir was your orders loud and clear
先生，你的命令是否清晰响亮
Now they turned me out of the jailhouse back door
现在他们把我从监狱后门赶了出来
But I wouldn't leave my miner friends
但我不会离开我的矿工朋友们
I jumped back to that jailhouse winder and I sang that miner songs again

Union miners stand together

Heed no operator's tale
不听管理者的谎言
Keep your hand upon the dollar and your eye upon the scale
