Introduction: C F C C G C
C F C
Shotgun houses, shanty shacks
C G C
Countin' those ties on the railroad track
C F C
Thirty-four more, it's almost time
C G
To see my baby walking out of that
C F C
Coalmine, covered with dust
C G C
T-shirt tired, all muscled up
C F C
All mine, head to toe
C G C
Come on, come on, whistle, blow
C F C
I can't wait to get him home
C G C
Ain't gonna have nothing but the supper on
C F
Gonna keep him busy 'til its time
G C
He goes back to that coalmine
C F C
Some girls like them gussied up
C G C
Wearing all that smelly stuff
C F C
To me there's nothing quite so fine
C G
As my man standing in front of that
(2nd Chorus:)
C F C
Coalmine, covered with dust
C G C
T-shirt tied, all muscled up
C F C
All mine, head to toe
C G C
Come on, come on whistle, blow
C F C
Power's out, well that's all right
C G C
We'll make love by a miner's light
C F
Gonna keep him busy 'til its time
G C
He goes back to that coalmine
