Kentucky Mine
Diamond Rio His eyes greener than the meadows His hair is grayer than a ghost His lungs are blacker than the shadows that dance in circles down below You see them every Monday morning But Friday rolls the stone away Electric halos light their way Five days of widows mourning Kentucky mine, doing time Kentucky mine, stand in line Never see the light of day just to dog your own grave To coal dust they will return >From coal dust they make a living the earth is good but unforgiving And someone's got to keep the fire burnin' Daddy says, "Listen to me, Do not follow where my footsteps lead" And everything he said was true But what's a Kentucky boy like me to do?
