Dogs At Midnight - Tom Paxton[00:00:00]

You might hear dogs at midnight[00:00:09]

High up a treeless hill[00:00:12]

Workin' their own graveyard shift[00:00:16]

And howlin' out their fill[00:00:19]

While down below in Coal Town[00:00:22]

A woman lies awake[00:00:26]

And hears her sleeping husband fight[00:00:29]

For every breath he takes[00:00:33]

Oh the rockslide may not get you[00:00:35]

The fire might pass you by[00:00:39]

When the gas goes up[00:00:42]

It might not be your time to die[00:00:44]

But every year gets harder[00:00:49]

To draw a simple breath[00:00:53]

When the black lung gets you[00:00:56]

That's the kiss of death[00:00:58]

You might see old men waiting[00:01:16]

On the county courthouse green[00:01:19]

Tellin' tales at noontime[00:01:23]

Of the bitter sights they've seen[00:01:26]

It makes a postcard picture there[00:01:29]

Beside the courthouse door[00:01:33]

Unless you know just why they're waitin'[00:01:36]

And what they're waitin' for[00:01:40]

Oh the rockslide may not get you[00:01:43]

The fire might pass you by[00:01:46]

When the gas goes up[00:01:49]

It might not be your time to die[00:01:52]

But every year gets harder[00:01:56]

To draw a simple breath[00:02:00]

When the black lung gets you[00:02:03]

That's the kiss of death[00:02:05]

Oh the rockslide may not get you[00:02:09]

The fire might pass you by[00:02:13]

When the gas goes up[00:02:16]

It might not be your time to die[00:02:18]

But every year gets harder[00:02:23]

To draw a simple breath[00:02:27]

When the black lung gets you[00:02:29]

That's the kiss of death[00:02:32]

When the black lung gets you[00:02:36]

That's the kiss of death[00:02:39]
