Dark Black Coal (OurVinyl Sessions)

Well you ain't got no life anymore

Each day in a dark coal mine

Working away every day

With your wife and kids on your mind

You wake up in the morning, grab your hard hat

Pray that you make it back home

Your body is aching, you just can't take it

Mining that dark black coal

Dark black coal, take my soul

I owe it to you anyways

Just don't let my children become the victims

Mountain's evil ways

And you miss being younger, boy with a hunger

To get far away from this town

You never knew how or why or when

Just knew that you'd make it somehow

Now 20 years older, shoulder to shoulder

With boys who were just like you

Spending their life undеrground

Proving their collars are blue

Dark black coal, takе my soul

I owe it to you anyways

Just don't let my children become the victims

The mountain's evil ways
