Harlan Man Lyrics & Tabs by Cumberland River
Harlan Man
guitar chords lyrics
Lord I tried and I found I nearly worked my self in the ground
But a Harlan man don't have that much of a choice
Either work down in the mine or the money you won't find
Cause a harlan man don't have that much of a choice
Lord I had a friend named Joe, Lord he got covered up with coal
I heard the mountain crack what an awful sight to see
Now I work down here alone and it chill's me to the bone
Just to know that I might be the next to leave
Lord I wanna get out of this hole but there ain't no where to go
I've worked so long and God it's killing me
Many uh years I've worked the mine and for me it's the end of the line
So when Gabriel blows his horn this is where I'll be
Dusty lungs, calloused hands with the back of a working man
Down in the mine wasting my life away
With a carbide light and no end in sight I'll be here digging on this grave
Dusty lungs, calloused hands with the back of a working man
Down in the mine wasting my life away
With a carbide light and no end in sight I'll be here digging on this grave
