miners’ survival song: The Gambler
May 22, 2006The two Australian miners trapped for two weeks in the rubble of a Tasmanian gold mine kept their spirits up by singing the Kenny Rogers song, The Gambler.
That’s the one with the line about ‘. . . the best you can hope for is to die in your sleep.’
The rescued miners can no doubt sleep better now that they have sold their story for approximately $1 million.
