Coal Tattoo
作词 : Billy Edd Wheeler
作曲 : Billy Edd Wheeler
Travelin' down that coaltown road,
Listen to my rubber tires whine;
Goodbye to Buckeye and White Sycamore
I'm leavin' you behind.
Oh I've been a coal man all my life
Layin' down track in the hole,
Got a back like an ironwood bent by the wind
Blood veins blue as the coal.
Blood veins blue as the coal
Somebody said "That's a strange tattoo
You have on the side of your head."
I said "That's a mark of the No.9 coal
A little more and I'd be dead"
However I love the rumble and I love the dark
I love the cool of the slate.
But it's going down that new road lookin' for a job
It's the travelin' and lookin' I hate
It's the travelin' and lookin' I hate.
I've stood for the union, walkin' the line,
Fought against the company;
I Stood for the U. M. W. of A.
Now who's gonna stand for me?
Well I got no home and I got no pay,
Just got a worried soul;
And this blue tattoo on the side of my head
Left by the number nine coal.
Left by the number nine coal.
Someday when I'm dead and go
To Heaven, the land of my dreams,
I won't have to worry on losin' my job
To bad times 'n' big machines.
Well I got no job and I got no pay,
Just got a worried soul;
And this blue tattoo on the side of my head
Left by the number nine coal
Left by the number nine coal.
