Coorie Doon: A Miner's Lullaby- Jo Burgess

Here is a cover of the folk song 'Coorie Doon- Miner's Lullaby' lyrics by Matt Mcginn. I don't quite know where it came from, if you do, please tell!
Coorie doon, coorie doon
Coorie doon, my darling
Coorie doon the day
Coorie doon, coorie doon
Coorie doon, my darling
Coorie doon the day
Lie still, my dear, and in your ear
To help ye close your eye
I'll sing a song, a slumber song
A miner's lullaby
There's darkness doon the mine, my darling
Darkness, dust and damp
But we must ha'e oor heat, oor light
Oor fire and oor lamp
Your daddy coories doon, my darling
Doon in a three foot seam
So you can coorie doon, my darling
Coorie doon and dream

It was originally a lullaby sung by Scottish mums to their children: 'snuggle down' and sleep tight, your Da's 'doon' the mine again tonight.
You capture the affect splendidly (as usual); there's no good reason you don't have a remarkable performing career ahead, even beyond RUclips!
