Lyrics
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Five o'clock in the morning
I'm already up and gone
Lord, I'm so tired
How long can this go on
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
'Cause I work every morning
Hauling coal by the ton
But when Saturday rolls around
I'm too tired to have any fun
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Lord, I'm so tired
How long can this go on?
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Five o'clock in the morning
I'm already up and gone
Lord, I'm so tired
How long can this go on
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
'Cause I work every morning
Hauling coal by the ton
But when Saturday rolls around
I'm too tired to have any fun
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Working in the coal mine
Going down, down, down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop, I wanna sit down
Lord, I'm so tired
How long can this go on?
