Jackie DeShannon - West Virginia Mine lyrics

Artist: Jackie DeShannon

album: Stone Cold Soul: The Complete Capitol Recordings


Don't you take me to West Virginia mine
Don't you make me leave my love behind
Oh, low-down industry
You don't protect my family
You know they're lyin' in the West Virginia mine
Down so long in the West Virginia mine
Like to quit, Lord God knows we're tryin'
Coal dust gets in your blood
Son, don't you do what your Daddy done
You know he's lyin' in the West Virginia mine
Livin' near the West Virginia mine
In cardboard houses, coal dust covered vines
But you just can't get no other job
When all your good health has been robbed
Keep on, keep on cryin' 'bout the West Virginia mine
Oh-oh-ah
You know your Daddy's lyin' in the West Virginia mine
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on cryin' 'bout the West Virginia mine
People, people dyin' in the West Virginia mine
Children cryin' 'bout the West Virginia mine
