Working in the Coal Mine

Well, I've been workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Five o'clock in the mornin' I'm up there b'fore the sun When my work day is over I'm too tired for havin' fun (Well, I'm so tired) (I've been) Workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Lord, I am so tired How long can this go on? Well, I've been workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Five o'clock in the mornin' I'm up there b'fore the sun When my work day is over I'm too tired for havin' fun (Well, I'm so tired) (I've been) Workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Workin' in a coal mine Goin' down, down Workin' in a coal mine. Whew! About to slip down Lord... I am so tired How long can this go on? Well, I've been workin' Goin' Workin' Whew! About to slip down Workin' Goin' Workin' Whew! About to slip down Now, or you better drop that load there boy You always pickin' on me now- boss
