Lyrics
THEY'RE WAITING INSIDE, AND THEY DO NOT HIDE, THEY LAY BESIDE, THEIR WORK MATES WHO DIED, IN THE PIKE RIVER MINE, AT 3.44, ON THE 19th DAY OF NOVEMBER. OH, BRING THEM HOME, OH, IT'S TIME TO COME HOME. SOMEBODY LIED TO THE MINERS INSIDE, THE RESCUERS TRIED, BUT STILL THEY'RE INSIDE, IN THE PIKE RIVER MINE, AT 3.44, ON THE 19th DAY OF NOVEMBER. OH, BRING THEM HOME, OH, IT'S TIME TO COME HOME. SO WHO IS TO BLAME, PLEASE DO EXPLAIN, THE SEAM OR THE VEIN, THE BLAST OR THE FLAME, IN THE PIKE RIVER MINE, AT 3.44, ON THE 19th DAY OF NOVEMBER. OH, BRING THEM HOME, OH, IT'S TIME TO COME HOME. AND TIME MOVES ALONG, BUT STILL THEY HOLD ON, THE OLD AND THE YOUNG, THE FATHERS AND SONS, IN THE PIKE RIVER MINE, AT 3.44, ON THE 19th DAY OF NOVEMBER. OH, BRING THEM HOME, OH, IT'S TIME TO COME HOME.
