Working Man

Chorus

It's a working man l am

And I've been down under ground

And I swear to God if ever see the sun

Or for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

I never again will go down under ground

At the age of sixteen years

Oh he quarrels with his peers

Who vowed they'd never see another one

In the dark recess of the mines

Where you age before your time

And the coal dust lies heavy on your lungs

Chorus

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 mines

Oh he'll take you back in time

And he'll tell you of the hardships that were had

Chorus

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat Chorus)

God I never again will go down under ground
