|
Well I'm a man of the mountain |
|
I'm just made of dirt |
|
Of this Earth |
|
I traveled |
|
Like a shepherd and his herd [Chorus:] |
|
And I said hang on, hang on |
|
Black lung heartache |
|
I sleep in a modest house |
|
These green hills |
|
I mind And if |
|
I plow tend my children |
|
Who will be by the side? [Chorus:] |
|
And I said hang on, hang on |
|
Black Lung |
|
Heartache |
|
I've shed many tears |
|
Seems I can?t shed no more |
|
You can see them on the table |
|
You can see 'em on the floor [Chorus Variation:] |
|
Now I said hang on, hang on |
|
Black lung heartache |
|
I've seen many men |
|
They become hard as nails |
|
Carrying the hammers like keys to a jail [Chorus Variation:] |
|
Now I said hang on, hang on |
|
Black lung heartache |
|
Now I said so long, so long |
|
Black lung heartache |
