Workin' in a coal mine
 Goin' down down down
 Workin' in a coal mine
 Whop! about to slip down
 Workin' in a coal mine
 Goin' down down down
 Workin' in a coal mine
 Whop! about to slip down
 Five o'clock in the mornin'
 I'm all ready up and gone
 Lord I am so tired
 How long can this go on?

 Goin' down down down
 Workin' in a coal mine
 Whop! about to slip down
