[Verse]

/C7

Well I've been workin' in a coal mine,

Goin' down, down;

/

Workin' in a coal mine, [Whoop!] about to slip down;

/

Workin' in a coal mine,

Goin' down, down;

/

Workin' in a coal mine, [Whoop!] about to slip down;

/G /

Five o'clock in the mornin', I'm up before the sun,

/ / C7

When my work day is over, I'm too tired for havin' fun....

/C7

I've been workin' in a coal mine,

Goin' down, down;

/

Workin' in a coal mine, [Whoop!] about to slip down;

/

Workin' in a coal mine,

Goin' down, down;

/

Workin' in a coal mine, [Whoop!] about to slip down;

/ / /

Lord, I am so tired

/

How long can this go on? .....

[repeat verse]

[Ending]
