Viewing Lyrics for Working Man:
| | | Artist: | Dolly Parton |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Working Man | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 117 | | | | Lyrics: | Coal miners, old and young, dirty and dusty coveralls
Silver lunch can in hand
Going down
the rake, father and son
Carrying on that age old tradition
You see they are working men
CHORUS
It's a working man I am and I've been down underground
And I swear by God
if I ever see the sun
Over any length of time, I can hold it in my mind
Then I will never
again go down underground
At the age of sixteen years, he quarreled with his peers
And he swears there will never be another on
In the dark recess of the mine, where you age
before your time
And the coal dust lies heavy on your lungs
REPEAT CHORUS
At the age of sixty-four, if he lives that long, he'll greet you at the door
And
he'll gently lead you by the arm
In the dark recess of the mine, he can take you back in time
Tell you of the hardships that were there
REPEAT CHORUS TWICE
No, I never
again will go down underground | | | |
