Kathy Mattea - Coal Tattoo songtekst
Je score:
Traveling on down that coal town road Listen to my rubber tires whine Goodbye to Buckeye and white sycamore I'm leaving you behind Oh, I've been a coal miner all my life Laying down track in a hole Got a back like ironwood, bent by the wind Blood veins as blue as the coal Blood veins as blue as the coal Well, somebody said, "That's a strange tattoo You have on the side of your head" I said, "That's a blue mark left by the coal Little more and I've been dead?" Oh, I love the rumble and I love the dark Oh, I love the cool of the slate But it's going down that new road, looking for a job Traveling and looking I hate Traveling and looking I hate Some day when I'm dead and gone To heaven, the land of my dreams I won't have to worry 'bout losing my job To bad times and big machines Oh, I got no house, Lord, I got no job Just got a worried soul And a blue tattoo on the side of my head Left by the number nine coal Left by the number nine coal
