专辑 | Coal |
Travelin' on down that coal town road | |
Listen to my rubber tires whine | |
Goodbye to buckeye and white sycamore | |
I'm leavin' you behind | |
Oh, I've been a coal miner all my life | |
Layin' down track in a hole | |
Got a back like ironwood, bent by the wind | |
Blood veins as blue as the coal | |
Blood veins as blue as the coal | |
Well, somebody said, “ | |
That's a strange tattoo | |
You have on the side of your head” | |
I said, “That's a blue mark left by the coal | |
Little more and | |
I'd a been dead” | |
Oh, I love the rumble and | |
I love the dark | |
Lord, I love the cool of the slate | |
But it's going down that new road lookin' for a job | |
Travelin' and lookin’ | |
I hateTravelin' and lookin’ | |
I hateSome day when | |
I'm dead and gone | |
To heaven the land of my dreams | |
I won't have to worry ‘bout losin' my job | |
To bad times and big machines | |
Oh, I got no house | |
Lord, I got no job | |
Just got a worried soul | |
And a blue tattoo on the side of my head | |
Left by the number nine coal | |
Left by the number nine coal |
Travelin' on down that coal town road | |
Listen to my rubber tires whine | |
Goodbye to buckeye and white sycamore | |
I' m leavin' you behind | |
Oh, I' ve been a coal miner all my life | |
Layin' down track in a hole | |
Got a back like ironwood, bent by the wind | |
Blood veins as blue as the coal | |
Blood veins as blue as the coal | |
Well, somebody said, " | |
That' s a strange tattoo | |
You have on the side of your head" | |
I said, " That' s a blue mark left by the coal | |
Little more and | |
I' d a been dead" | |
Oh, I love the rumble and | |
I love the dark | |
Lord, I love the cool of the slate | |
But it' s going down that new road lookin' for a job | |
Travelin' and lookin' | |
I hateTravelin' and lookin' | |
I hateSome day when | |
I' m dead and gone | |
To heaven the land of my dreams | |
I won' t have to worry ' bout losin' my job | |
To bad times and big machines | |
Oh, I got no house | |
Lord, I got no job | |
Just got a worried soul | |
And a blue tattoo on the side of my head | |
Left by the number nine coal | |
Left by the number nine coal |
