God loving boy with an ear against the wall We understand where you're coming from There's coal in the holes where your digging in the maw We understand there should be a law
That's what I heard
There's hard days to come with a burden on your back We understand why your hands are black Your harness and wheel drives a shoulder to the ground We understand that you're leaving town
That's what I heard
That's what I heard We understand where you're coming from.
