Working Man Lyrics

It's a working man I am

And I've been down underground

And I swear to God

If I ever see the sun

Oh for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

I never again

Will go down underground

At the age of sixteen years

Oh he quarrels with his peers

He vowed they'd never

See another one

In the dark recess of the mine

Where you age before your time

And the coal dust lies heavy

On your lungs

It's a working man I am

And I've been down underground

And I swear to God

If I ever see the sun

Oh for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

I never again

Will go down underground

At the age of sixty four

He will greet you at the door

And he will gently lead you

By the arm

Through the dark recess of the mine

He will take you back in time

And he'll tell you of

The hardships that were had

It's a working man I am

And I've been down underground

And I swear to God

If I ever see the sun

Oh for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

I never again will go down underground

I never again will go down underground
