Daylight or dark, in rain or shine
It don`t much matter down in the mine
Where the tunnel`s deep, Lord the air gets thin
That`s the way of life for the minin` man.
His lungs are weak. his back is gone
His sixty years are plainly shown
Lived half his life down in the ground
A cold steel hammer rings a mournful sound.
Daylight or dark, in rain or shine
It don`t much matter down in the mine
Where the tunnel`s deep, Lord the air gets thin
That`s the way of life for the minin` man.
I`ll tell you, son he said to me
There`s just two things I pray to see
That the day my Savior calls me home
And to see my son stop minin` coal.
Oh, daddy dear I`ll tell you true
There`s nothing elsr for me to do
But to make my livin` underneath this land
And live and die a coal minin` man.
Daylight or dark, in rain or shine
It don`t much matter down in the mine
Where the tunnel`s deep, Lord the air gets thin
That`s the way of life for the minin` man.
