Dwight Yoakam - Miner`s Prayer слова песни
(D. Yoakam)Miner`s Prayer is dedicated to the memory of Luther Tibbs.A Kentucky coal miner for 40 years, and my Grandpa.When the whistle blows each morningAnd I walk down in that cold, dark mineI say a prayer to my dear SaviorPlease let me see the sunshine one more timeChorus:When oh when will it be overWhen will I lay these burdens downAnd when I die, dear Lord in heavenPlease take my soul from `neath that cold dark groundI still grieve for my poor brotherAnd I still hear my dear old mother cryWhen late that night they came and told herHe`d lost his life down in the Big Shoal MineChorus:When oh when will it be overWhen will I lay these burdens downAnd when I die, dear Lord in heavenPlease take my soul from `neath that cold dark groundI have no shame, I feel no sorrowIf on this earth not much I ownI have the love of my sweet childrenAn old plow mule, a shovel and a hoeChorus:When oh when will it be overWhen will I lay these burdens downAnd when I die, dear Lord in heavenPlease take my soul from `neath that cold dark groundYeah, when I die, dear Lord in heavenPlease take my soul from `neath that cold dark ground
