-
Daddy was a miner,
Granddaddy was too;
Uncle died in a rock slide
Before the rescue team got through.
Chorus:
And they still go down, And they still go down
Into the earth.
Tremblin’ inside and covered with dust
And they still go down.
Over in Moab, Utah,
Down in Coal Creek Tennessee,
Many a man lyin’ dead there,
‘Cause we’ve got to have those metals you see.
Chorus
Maybe they’ll find a new way to mine
We won’t need to go in the ground
But there’s thousands with spots on their lungs now
Who sit and watch their lives trickle down.
