There's workers in the mine and they can't get out There's workers in the mine with a job to do Cause their moms want kids and it's just not fair Gotta get those workers outta there
There's workers in the mine, you don't know them well But they're red blooded American boys trapped in a cold black hell There's worker's in the mine, they could be your son But not unless we reconnect the tunnel so they can come
For love we cut the tie, for love we tie it back If we can't get them out through the tunnel We'll blow a hole through the sack Because the ceiling's caving in and everyone's getting older And you've been in this mine far too long
But no you are not forgotten, though many of us were blind Thought we didn't want children but then we changed our mind There's workers in the mine and they can't escape The tunnel's out but it's time to evacuate There's worker's in the mine and they could be your friends But not until the we repair vas deferens There's workers in the mine, but the workers are alone The work is never done, until our brothers come back home
