Em  A7/C#  D              Em           A7/C#   D
    All my life I've been digging Polish black coal

Em   A7/C#  D            Em           A7/C#     D
  It wasn't much but you know I could play that role

Em     Em/D    A7/C#   Am           B7
  They laid me off and so I kept my pail

Em   A7/C#  D       Em         A7/C#        D  B7 
  And now I wade in bushes down by the rail

     Em C         B7       A7
        Raider man, got no choice about it

     Em C         B7         A7
        Raider man, jumpin' up there on it

     Em C         B7       A7                Em    B7
        Raider man, gonna' take a little bit now

Em      A7/C#    D              Em       A7/C#   D
   They hired me back and traded my pail for a stick

Em    A7/C#   D       Em          A7/C#       D    B7
  And now I chase the ones with a pail and a brick

Em   A7/C#     D            Em          A7/C#  D
   I chased my cousin, it wasn't no big deal

Em   A7/C#  D            Em                 A7/C#      D
  I lost my legs when I slipped beneath the coal train wheel

Em   Em/D   A7/C#        Am       Am/G   B7
  My cousin tries to put something in my bowl

Em    A7/C#  D           Em           A7/C#     D   B7
  And now I wish I never left that darkened hole
