Loading...

woke up this morning ’bout five o’clock
got me some eggs and a nice pork chop
cheap cigar and a magazine
had to run pretty fast to catch the five-fifteen

let me tell you something that i seen:
coal man got run over by the five-fifteen
cut off his arms and it crushed his ribs
did the poor man die? no, the poor man lived!

let me tell you something that i know:
coal man got run over by the five-fourty-four
cut off his arms and it crushed his head
did the poor man die? no, the poor man didn’t

hard coal, stovewood, ma’am
hard coal and your stovewood, ma’am
i ain’t got but a little bit left
if you don’t come get it, gonna burn it myself

just the wood in the stove and the match in your hand
wood in the stove and the match in your hand
wood in the stove and the match in your hand
you run to the door and stop to tell the coal man

sell it to the rich and i sell it to the poor
sell it to the rich and i sell it to the poor
sell it to the rich and i sell it to the poor
i sell it to the nice brown a’standing in the door

furnish your wood, furnish your coal
furnish your wood and i furnish your coal
furnish your wood and i furnish your coal
make you love me, doggone your soul

i’ve got your water, got your gas
got your water and got your gas
got your water and i’ve got your gas
you cheat me, mama, said, “that’s your last”

let me tell you, mama, what’s the matter now?
let me tell you, mama, what’s the matter now?
let me tell you, mama, what’s the matter now?
you don’t want me? take me anyhow

sweet mama, sweet mama, what’s on your mind?
mama, sweet mama, what’s on your mind?
mama, sweet mama, what’s on your mind?
says, “you can’t quit me, no need of tryin'”

i’m goin’ up the country, don’t you want to go?
goin’ up the country, don’t you want to go?
goin’ up the country, don’t you want to go?
leaving here, ain’t coming back no more

me and my rider and two ‘three more
me and my rider and two or three more
me and my rider and two or three more
we’re goin’ up the country, don’t you want to go?

went down the road, feelin’ bad
went down the road, mama, feelin’ bad
went down the road, mama, feelin’ bad
i feel so worried as i ever had

me and my
me and my mama and two or three more
me and my brown, three, four more
goin’ up the country. don’t you want to go?

goin’ away and it won’t be long
goin’ away and it won’t be long
goin’ away and it won’t be long
don’t believe i’m leavin’, count the days i’m gone
