Mining Camp Blues lyrics
Once i had a daddy
and he worked down in a hole
once i had a daddy
and he worked down in a hole
digging and hauling
hauling that birmingham coal
many times i wondered
when they took my daddy down
many times i wondered
when they took my daddy down
will he come back to me
will they leave him in the ground
something like the pitcher
that they sent down in the well
something like the pitcher
that they sent down in the well
wondering will they break it
lordy lordy who can tell
it was late one evening
i was standing at that mine
it was late one evening
i was standing at that mine
foreman said my daddy
had gone down for his last last time
now he was a coalminer
from his hat down to his shoes
now he was a coalminer
from his hat down to his shoes
and i'm nearly dying
with these mining camp blues
