Am F
Travelin' on down the coal town road
Well somebody said that's a strange tattoo
Someday when I'm dead and gone
G Am
Listenin' to my rubber tires whine
You have on the side of your head
To heaven the land of my dreams
Am F
Goodbye to Buckeye, White Sycamore
I said, that's a blue mark left by the coal
I won't have to worry about losing my job
G Am
I leaving you behind
Little more and I'd been dead.
To bad time and big machines
F G
Oh, I've been a coal miner all my life
I love the rumble, I love the dark

Oh! I got no house Lord I got no job
F G
Laying down track in a hole
Lord, I love the cool of the slate
Just got a worried soul
Am F
Got a back like ironwood, bent by the wind
But it's going down that new road lookin' for a job
And a blue tattoo on the side of my head
G Am
Blood veins as blue as the coal
Travelin' and lookin' I hate
Left by that number 9 coal
G Am
Blood veins as blue as the coal
Travelin' and lookin' I hate
Left by that number 9 coal
Left by that number 9 coal
