My pappy said when I was seventeen you're six feet tall and your face is cleanAnd it don't look right for a boy that old to not make a livin' loadin' coalLoadin' coal loadin' coal I'm a double first cousin to a dad blamed moleNever get rich for to save my soul and forty 'leven years a loadin' coal loadin' coalAin't never got acquainted with a dollar bill and I don't ever reckon that I ever willA dollar ain't made for a fellar I'm told that scoops up a livin' loadin' coalLoadin' coal loadin' coal...[ ac.guitar ]I cussed everything in the mining camp from a shovel and my pick to my carbide lampBut I know mighty well till I grow old I'll still be a cussin' but loadin' coalLoadin' coal loadin' coal...[ ac,guitar ]I know just as well as coal is black one of these days the mines were strikeAnd I'll sit around starvin' till I'm finally toldThere's a nickel more a ton for loadin' coalLoadin' coal loadin' coal...
