文本歌词

Here come the mine cars it'sd**n near dawn
Another shift of men some of my friends comin' on
Hard to imagine workin' in the mines
Coal dust in your lungs on your skin and on your mind
I've listened to the speeches
But it occours to me politicians just don't understand
The thoughts of isolation ain't no sunshine underground
It's like workin' in a graveyard three miles down
D**n near a legend as old as the mines
Things that happen in the pits just don't change with the times
Work 'till you're exhausted in too little spacwe
A history of desastrous fears etched on your face
Somebody signs a paper ev'ry body thinks it's fine
But Taft and Hartley ain't done one day in the mines
You start to stiffen You heard a crackin' sound
It's like workin' in a graveyard three miles down
