Dierks Bentley - Down In The Mine[00:00:00]
Here in Harlan County the choices are few[00:00:11]
To keep food on the table and the babies in shoes[00:00:19]
You can grow marijuana way back in the pines[00:00:26]
Or work for the man down in the mine[00:00:34]
You never forget your first day in the hole[00:00:45]
There's a pit in your stomach and your mouth's full of coal[00:00:53]
There's no turning back once you make up your mind[00:01:00]
As the cart rattles on down in the mine[00:01:08]
Way down in the mine your tears turn to mud[00:01:17]
And you can't catch your breath for the dust in your lungs[00:01:29]
Loading hillbilly gold where the sun never shines[00:01:42]
Twelve hours a day diggin' your grave[00:01:54]
Way down in the mine[00:02:01]
Well the old timers talk but you just don't believe[00:02:08]
It can all go to hell at two thousand feet[00:02:16]
Life sways in the balance of nature and time[00:02:24]
And fate has no mercy down in the mine[00:02:31]
The news spreads like fire and burned through those hills[00:03:07]
Hopes were held high but five men got killed[00:03:14]
On the wings of canaries your soul surely flies[00:03:21]
While your bones spend eternity down in the mine[00:03:30]
Way down in the mine your tears turn to mud[00:03:40]
And you can't catch your breath for the dust in your lungs[00:03:52]
Loading hillbilly gold where the sun never shines[00:04:04]
Twelve hours a day diggin' your grave[00:04:17]
Way down in the mine[00:04:23]
So take a flask from your crib case and a pull of moonshine[00:04:31]
And say a prayer for them boys down in the mine[00:04:41]
