Mary Duff - Working Man lyrics
Your rating:
It's a working man I am and I've been down underground And I swear to God if I ever see the sun Over any length of time, I can hold it in my mind I never again will go down underground At the age of sixteen years, oh, he quarreled with his peers Who vowed they'd never see another one In the dark recess of the mine, where you age before your time And the coal dust lies heavy on your lungs It's a working man I am and I've been down underground And I swear to God if I ever see the sun Over any length of time, I can hold it in my mind I never again will go down underground At the age of sixty-four, oh, he'll greet you at the door And he'll gently lead you by the arm Through the dark recess of the mine, oh, he take you back in time And he'll tell you of the hardships that were had It's a working man I am and I've been down underground And I swear to God if I ever see the sun Over any length of time, I can hold it in my mind I never again will go down underground It's a working man I am and I've been down underground And I swear to God if I ever see the sun Over any length of time, I can hold it in my mind I never again will go down underground
