Lyrics
I Won’t Work In That Mine
Copyright Andrew Glanzman
I won’t work in that mine
I won’t work in that mine
Got no business on this line
I won’t work in that mine
Won’t load no salt in that mine
Won’t drive no mule in that mine
Oh my brothers did their time
I won’t work in that mine
Won’t buck no rock in that mine
Won’t breath gas air in that mine
Won’t hoist no cage where the light don’t shine
I won’t work in that mine
Them grown men cry in that mine
Them salt pit hands do their time
Sprits left down in that mine
I won’t go, not one more time
Won’t wear no shame in that mine
Won’t wear no chain in that mine
Din’t do no wrong, dint do no crime
I wont work down in that mine
I won’t work in that mine
I won’t work in that mine
I got no business on this line
I wont work in that mine
I won’t work in that mine
No, I won’t work in that mine
I won’t work in that mine
