Lyrics

Well I been workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Five o'clock in the mornin'
I'm up before the sun
When my work day is over
I'm too tired for havin' fun

Well I been workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Lord I am so tired
How long can this go on?

Well I been workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Five o'clock in the mornin'
I'm up before the sun
When my work day is over
I'm too tired for havin' fun

Well I been workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Workin' in a coal mine
Goin' down down
Workin' in a coal mine
Whew about to slip down

Lord I am so tired
How long can this go on?

I been workin' goin' workin'
Whew about to slip down

Workin' goin' workin'
Whew about to slip down (repeat and fade)
