“Some men helped to win the war

But never marched in lines

A desperate Government made new laws...

To send men down the mines.

Into the pits these men were sent

(Although prepared to fight!)

A conscripted force of ten per cent.

To work where day was night.

From any job in any street

To pit work they did go...

Instead of war and marching feet

Their ‘enemy’ was below.”
