dying to make a living lyrics
[verse 1]
he don’t like breathin’ this way
but it’s lucky he’s breathin’ at all
thirty+five years in a methane cave
makes your lungs all black and raw
[verse 2]
he’s got a pinch between his cheek and gum
got a pinched nerve in his neck
rollin’ back and forth through the cars
he’s rollin’ towards a nervous wreck
[chorus]
way down in the where he earns his pay
it’s dark and unforgiving
diggin’ this coal, diggin’ his grave
he’s dying to make a livin’
he’s dying to make a livin’
[verse 3]
he don’t like walkin’ this way
but it’s lucky walkin’ at all
docter said he’s five+foot+eight
well, he used to stand six foot tall
[verse 4]
he’s got a bone from his hip in his lower back
got screws in both his legs
takes cheap work cause he’s got to have cash
now he’s got to have percocet
[chorus]
way down in the where he earns his pay
it’s dark and unforgiving
diggin’ this coal, diggin’ his grave
he’s dying to make a livin’
he’s dying to make a livin’
[verse 5]
he don’t like livin’ this way
but it’s lucky he’s livin’ at all
thirty+five years as a black jewel slave
prayin’ that the roof don’t fall
[verse 6]
got two heavy eyes and three slipped discs
he sleeps with a metal spine
daydreams fade on the [?] shift
when you work down in the mines
[chorus]
way down in the where he earns his pay
it’s dark and unforgiving
diggin’ this coal, diggin’ his grave
he’s dying to make a livin’
he’s dying to make a livin’
he’s dyin’, tryin’, to make a livin’
