I can`t stay here much longer, Melinda
The sun is getting high
I can`t help you with your troubles
If you won`t help with mine
I gotta get down
I gotta get down
Gotta get down to the mine
You keep me up just one more night
I can`t stop here no more
Little Ben clock says quarter to eight
You kept me up till four
I gotta get down
I gotta get down
Or I can`t work there no more
Lotta poor man make a five dollar bill
Will keep him happy all the time
Some other fellow`s making nothing at all
And you can hear him cry
Can I go, buddy, can I go down
Take your shift at the mine
Gotta get down to the Cumberland mine
That`s where I mainly spend my time
Make good money, five dollars a day
If I made any more I might move away
Lotta poor man got the Cumberland Blues
He can`t win for losing
Lotta poor man got to walk the line
Just to pay his union dues
