[00:02:52] My pappy said when

[00:02:53] I was seventeen you're six feet tall

[00:02:56] And your face is clean

[00:02:57] And it don't look right for a boy

[00:02:59] That old to not make a living loadin' coal

[00:03:04] Loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:03:06] I'm a double first cousin to a dad blamed mole

[00:03:09] Never get rich for to save my soul

[00:03:12] And forty 'leven years a loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:03:19] Ain't never got acquainted with a dollar bill and

[00:03:22] I don't ever reckon that

[00:03:23] I ever will

[00:03:24] A dollar ain't made for a fellar

[00:03:26] I'm told that scoops up a living loadin' coal

[00:03:31] Loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:03:33] I'm a double first cousin to a dad blamed mole

[00:03:36] Never get rich for to save my soul

[00:03:39] And forty 'leven years a loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:03:52] I cussed everything in the mining camp

[00:03:55] From a shovel and my pick to my carbide lamp

[00:03:58] But

[00:03:58] I know mighty well till

[00:03:59] I grow old

[00:04:00] I'll still be a cussin' but loadin' coal

[00:04:04] Loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:04:07] I'm a double first cousin to a dad blamed mole

[00:04:10] Never get rich for to save my soul

[00:04:12] And forty 'leven years a loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:04:26] I know just as well as coal is black

[00:04:29] One of these days the mines were strike

[00:04:31] And

[00:04:32] I'll sit around starvin' till

[00:04:33] I'm finally told

[00:04:34] There's a nickel more a ton for loadin' coal

[00:04:38] Loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:04:40] I'm a double first cousin to a dad blamed mole

[00:04:43] Never get rich for to save my soul

[00:04:46] And forty 'leven years a loadin' coal loadin' coal

[00:04:52] Loadin' coal loadin' coal
