What Are The Lyrics For Coal Tattoo By The Kingston Trio?
Travelin' down that coal town road. Listenin' to my rubber tires whine.
Goodbye to Buckeye and white Sycamore. I'm leavin' you behind. I've been coal miner all of my life. Layin' down track in the hole. Gotta back like an ironwood, bit by the wind. Blood veins blue as the coal. Blood veins blue as the coal. Somebody said, "That's a strange tattoo you have on the side of your head" I said, "That's the blueprint left by the coal. A little more and I'd been dead Well, I love the rumble and I love the dark. I love the cool of the slade And it's on down the new road, lookin' for a job. This travelin' nook in my head" I stood for the union and walked in the line and fought against the company I stood for the U. M. W. of A. Now, who's gonna stand for me? I've got no house and 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 Someday when I'm dead and gone to heaven, the land of my dreams I won't have to worry on losin' my job, on bad times and big machines I ain't gonna pay my money away on dues or hospital plans I'm gonna pick coal where the blue heavens roll and sing with the angel band |
