Dark as a Dungeon Lyrics

Lyric discussion by jameslfx 

Cover art for Dark as a Dungeon lyrics by Dolly Parton

I feel this song is probably about a real coal mine but could also be a metaphor for choosing evil over good in the same way "cold as Ice" by The Foreigners portrays digging for gold be it black or real gold its like a sickness. Going after what cant be yours or what God has not laid out for you for any sin greed, lust, you name it.

Anyway that's what I feel... No one else posted? really?
