lyrics

I walk a mile down deep inside into the pit of darkness with no horse to ride
The job i have no one really wants, a candle on my head and a pick in my palms
12 years old I was pickin slate being a driver boy was my next date.
At 15 with pick in his hand 50 tons of rock took the life of my brother sam
Didn’t strike the rock, because i wanted to, i did because i had to
Day after day i work in the dark because of marylou jimmy jack and little tom
When you’re a man no work is fun but its whatcha do to get the job done.
Side by side with the other three there’s all coal miners in this family tree
Another coal car is filled many to go keep swinging the pick until the lunch whistle blows
I cough all the time because of my black lungs, but there no other jobs so I godda swing on
Many men died in those dark mines bringing us all our life supplies.
We should bow our heads and give respect to all the ones that swung a pick and died.
