and to those who do not care
I'll try my friends to tell you

C
the smoke and blazes roll
Won't you stop and think who suffers
G

for that little lump of coal?
Well he gets up in the morning
Dm

while you're in the land of Nod
And at the family altar
Dm
F
while he's under the ground
G
C
G
C
to his family safe and sound.
He eats a hearty breakfast,
F
C
and he fixes his carbide flask.
Picks up his lamp and bucket,
Dm
G
then he's ready for his task.
Dm
F
With a car up in his place
G
C
The sweat pours down his face
Then he lines up at the office
Dm
F
C
With the others in a row
His statement signed and ready
Dm
F
C
is a way up in the air.
Do you think what he's asking
F
C
your servants and your wife.
The plaster on the office wall
Dm
F
C
an humble sort of mole,
That takes so dangerous chances
G
C
F
C
for that little lump of coal.
