It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground

And I swear to God if I ever
see the sun
Oh for any length of time,
I can hold it in my mind

I never again will go down
underground
At the age of sixteen years,
With my father close to tears
As he vowed never again to

send his sons
To the dark recess of the mines,

Where you age before your time

And the coal dust lies heavy on
yourlungs
It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground

And I swear to God if I ever
see the sun
Oh for any length of time,
I can hold it in my mind

I never again will go down
underground
At the age of sixty five,
I pray to God Fm still alive

And the wheels above the
mines no longer whine
And they finally close the hole
Where for years we clawed for
coal
And never again will we go
down underground
It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground

And I swear to God if I ever
see the sun
Oh for any length of time,
I can hold it in my mind

I never again will go down
underground
It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground

And I swear to God if I ever
see the sun
Oh for any length of time,
I can hold it in my mind

I never again will go down
underground
