He’s a poor man ‘cause mining’s all he’s known |
| [00:19.747] |
And miners don’t get rich loadin’ coal. |
| [00:27.725] |
He’s a sick man ‘cause that coal dust took its stand |
| [00:36.281] |
And he don’t expect to get no help from that operator man. |
| [00:47.114] |
Well, it’s goodbye old-timer, I guess our time has come. |
| [00:57.779] |
Those waterholes, that dirty coal dust eatin’ up our lungs. |
| [01:07.852] |
We’ll leave this world just as poor as the day we saw the sun. |
| [01:18.692] |
Well, it’s goodbye, old-timer, all your mining is done. |
| [01:29.356] |
I remember the time when I could load more coal than any man. |
| [01:39.926] |
Now my health is gone buried in, down in that dirty ground. |
| [01:50.431] |
And they’ve taken away my rights and privilege to be a man. |
| [02:00.951] |
But I know that I can’t tell all that to that operator man. |
| [02:10.998] |
Well, it’s goodbye old-timer, I guess our time has come. |
| [02:21.723] |
Those waterholes, that dirty coal dust eatin’ up our lungs. |
| [02:32.194] |
We’ll leave this world just as poor as the day we saw the sun. |
| [02:43.080] |
Well, it’s goodbye, old-timer, all your mining is done. |
| [02:53.555] |
Remember, old timer, when we were little kids |
| [03:04.675] |
And we’d talk about mining days when we got grown and big. |
| [03:15.288] |
But now we’re old broken men. They don’t need us around |
| [03:25.687] |
Though we gave our lives to make them rich, they won’t give us a dime. |
| [03:36.732] |
Well, it’s goodbye old-timer, I guess our time has come. |
| [03:46.880] |
Those waterholes, that dirty coal dust eatin’ up our lungs. |
| [03:57.021] |
We’ll leave this world just as poor as the day we saw the sun. |
| [04:07.843] |
Well, it’s goodbye, old-timer, all your mining is done. |
