Come, all you coalminers
Wherever you may be

Verse 2
Dm
I was born in old Kentucky
In a coal camp, born and bred
I know about old beans
Bulldog gravy and cornbread

For a dollar in the company store
A

For that is all they pay
Verse 3

Mining is the most dangerous work
In our land today
Plenty of dirty, slaving work
For very little pay
Coalminers, won't you wake up
C
And open your eyes and see

What this dirty capitalist system
A

Has done to you and me
Verse 4
Dear miners, they will slave you
Until you can't work no more
And what will you get for your labor but a dollar
in the company store
A tumbledown shack to live in
C
Dm
Snow and rain pouring through the top and you have to pay
A
Dm
the company rent and your payments will never stop
Verse 5
Dm
They take our very lifeblood
They take our children's lives
Take fathers away

Take husbands away from wives

Wherever you may be

And make this a land of freedom

For workers, like you and me

To the darkest pits of hell
