about

A Coal Miner wants to kill off his unborn child

lyrics

Letters sent, no money saved for rent
a picture of dad from the war
Dirty pans and nothing to clean our hands
coal dust is all that I know
you got labor pains and thats all she wrote
I got a belly full of black lung and a head full of smoke

And there's nothing but losing this time
We can save up for years, or I can drink for a dime
For we called out the plague
and No one is safe

White damp is all that surrounds me
Stale bread on the table for us
Giving life but we are still lifeless
A quarter, a Penny, a gun
She'll be lucky to make it to five
And I won't speak her name til the day that I die

And there's nothing but losing this time
We should kill her off quickly, before she buries us alive
For we called out the plague
and No one is safe

This ain't no life to be had
a broken down bed
a pile of hand me down clothes

Make it right make it all pass tonight
there'll be bones in the water for you
Longwall ain't no life for me
I'll be left with the toxins and a struggle to breath

And there's nothing but losing this time
We can save up for years, or I can drink for a dime
For we called out the plague
and No one is safe
