[00:08.78]It's a working man I am
[00:13.09]And I've been down underground
[00:16.47]
[00:17.53]And I swear to God
[00:19.33]If I ever see the sun
[00:23.15]
[00:26.15]Oh for any length of time
[00:29.40]
[00:30.46]I can hold it in my mind
[00:33.77]
[00:35.40]I never again
[00:37.09]Will go down underground
[00:41.15]
[00:43.65]At the age of sixteen years
[00:46.96]
[00:47.97]Oh he quarrels with his peers
[00:51.27]
[00:52.78]He vowed they'd never
[00:54.59]See another one
[00:57.84]
[01:00.85]In the dark recess of the mine
[01:04.48]
[01:05.55]Where you age before your time
[01:08.65]
[01:09.85]And the coal dust lies heavy
[01:13.10]On your lungs
[01:15.97]
[01:18.59]It's a working man I am
[01:21.85]
[01:22.85]And I've been down underground
[01:26.11]
[01:27.24]And I swear to God
[01:29.17]If I ever see the sun
[01:33.11]
[01:35.99]Oh for any length of time
[01:39.17]
[01:40.24]I can hold it in my mind
[01:43.64]
[01:45.26]I never again
[01:46.63]Will go down underground
[01:51.13]
[01:53.39]At the age of sixty four
[01:56.58]
[01:57.76]He will greet you at the door
[02:01.07]
[02:02.46]And he will gently lead you
[02:06.12]By the arm
[02:08.00]
[02:10.57]Through the dark recess of the mine
[02:14.32]
[02:15.31]He will take you back in time
[02:18.75]
[02:19.56]And he'll tell you of
[02:21.88]The hardships that were had
[02:25.88]
[02:28.31]It's a working man I am
[02:31.44]
[02:32.50]And I've been down underground
[02:35.94]
[02:36.94]And I swear to God
[02:38.94]If I ever see the sun
[02:42.87]
[02:45.69]Oh for any length of time
[02:49.04]
[02:50.04]I can hold it in my mind
[02:53.38]
[02:54.82]I never again will go down underground
[03:00.89]
[03:03.32]I never again will go down underground
