I was born in West Virginia Where the land is black with coal For a man to feed his family It takes twelve hours a day a diggin' in a dirty black hole
Way down in the bottom of a mountain Way down in the bottom of a hole Way down in the bottom of a mountain I'm diggin' and a shovelin' and a loadin' out the dirty black coal
Some men give their wives jewelry Some men give their wives gold But all I can give to my sweet woman Are the few dollars I make from diggin' out the dirty black coal
Way down in the bottom of a mountain Way down in the bottom of a hole Way down in the bottom of a mountain I'm diggin' and a shovelin' and a loadin' out the dirty black coal
I draw script for most of my money I never see a lot of that I work all week and go to church on Sunday Well the preacher gonna get what's left when they pass the hat
Way down in the bottom of a mountain Way down in the bottom of a hole Way down in the bottom of a mountain I'm diggin' and a shovelin' and a loadin' out the dirty black coal I'm diggin' and a shovelin' and a loadin' out the dirty black coalTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
