Workin' in a coal mine
When I was just a baby,

I played in the dirt while the others worked
and couldn't straighten up their backs
And I made myself a promise
when I was big enough to run
That I'd never stay a single day

So I stole ten bucks in a pickup truck

When a redneck grabbed my shirt
And he said, go back to your cotton sack
I left him dyin' in the dirt
