《Down In The Mine》歌词

[00:00:00] Dierks Bentley - Down In The Mine

[00:00:11] Here in Harlan County the choices are few

[00:00:19] To keep food on the table and the babies in shoes

[00:00:26] You can grow marijuana way back in the pines

[00:00:34] Or work for the man down in the mine

[00:00:45] You never forget your first day in the hole

[00:00:53] There's a pit in your stomach and your mouth's full of coal

[00:01:00] There's no turning back once you make up your mind

[00:01:08] As the cart rattles on down in the mine

[00:01:17] Way down in the mine your tears turn to mud

[00:01:29] And you can't catch your breath for the dust in your lungs

[00:01:42] Loading hillbilly gold where the sun never shines

[00:01:54] Twelve hours a day diggin' your grave

[00:02:01] Way down in the mine

[00:02:08] Well the old timers talk but you just don't believe

[00:02:16] It can all go to hell at two thousand feet

[00:02:24] Life sways in the balance of nature and time

[00:02:31] And fate has no mercy down in the mine

[00:03:07] The news spreads like fire and burned through those hills

[00:03:14] Hopes were held high but five men got killed

[00:03:21] On the wings of canaries your soul surely flies

[00:03:30] While your bones spend eternity down in the mine

[00:03:40] Way down in the mine your tears turn to mud

[00:03:52] And you can't catch your breath for the dust in your lungs

[00:04:04] Loading hillbilly gold where the sun never shines

[00:04:17] Twelve hours a day diggin' your grave

[00:04:23] Way down in the mine

[00:04:31] So take a flask from your crib case and a pull of moonshine

[00:04:41] And say a prayer for them boys down in the mine
