REFRAIN
Working in the coal mine
Going down down down
Working in the coal mine
Whoop about to slip down
REPEAT REFRAIN
Five o'clock in the morning
I'm already up and gone
Lord I'm so tired
How long can this go on
REFRAIN sung twice
Cause I work every morning
Hauling coal by the ton,
But when Saturday rolls around
I'm too tired to have any fun
REFRAIN sung twice
Spoken:Lord, I'm so tired. How long can this go on?
