Kathy Mattea Coal Coal Tattoo Travelin' on down that coal town road Listen to my rubber tires whine Goodbye to buckeye and white sycamore I'm leavin' you behind Oh, I've been a coal miner all my life Layin' down track in a hole Got a back like ironwood, bent by the wind Blood veins as blue as the coal Blood veins as blue as the coal Well, somebody said, “That's a strange tattoo You have on the side of your head” I said, “That's a blue mark left by the coal Little more and I'd a been dead” Oh, I love the rumble and I love the dark Lord, I love the cool of the slate But it's going down that new road lookin' for a job Travelin' and lookin’ I hate Travelin' and lookin’ I hate Some day when I'm dead and gone To heaven the land of my dreams I won't have to worry ‘bout losin' my job To bad times and big machines Oh, I got no house Lord, I got no job Just got a worried soul And a blue tattoo on the side of my head Left by the number nine coal Left by the number nine coal |
