[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]
