Sandy Denny şarkı sözleri
Travelin' down that coaltown road,Listen to my rubber tires whine;Goodbye to Buckeye and White Sycamore,I'm leavin' you behind.I've been a coal miner all my lifeLayin' down track in the hole,Got a back like an ironwood bent by the windBlood veins as black as the coal.Somebody said "That's a strange tattooYou have on the side of your head."I said "That's a mark of number nine coalA little more and I'd be dead"But I love the rumble and I love the darkI love the cool of the slate.But it's travelin' down this new road lookin' for a jobIt's the travelin' and lookin' I hate.I've stood for the union, I walked in the line,I fought against the company;I stood for the U. M. W. of A.Now who's gonna stand for me?Cause I got no job, I got no pay,I just got a worried soul;And this blue tattoo on the side of my headLeft by the number nine coal.Someday when I'm dead and goneTo Heaven, the land of my dreams,I won't have to worry on losin' my jobTo bad times 'n big machines.But I got no job and I got no pay,I just got a worried soul;And this blue tattoo on the side of my headLeft by that number nine coal,Left by that number nine coal.
