[D]
I bought a house at the mouth of the holler, a ring at the [G] pawn shop and a [D] crib for the kid.
I heard some word there was [C] work up in Hindman, I'm [D] going [C] [Dm] tomorrow and hope that there is.
My sweat and my [D] wages, [C] they don't seem to [G] weigh out, I'm getting more aches than I'm
gaining in [D] gold.
Whoever said you could [C] raise you a [G] family just working your ass off knee deep in [D] coal?

Well the sign at the church says I'll [C] reap what I'm [G]
sowing, but I ain't lost sleep, it'll

And if the Lord wants to take me, I'm [C] here for the [G] taking, cause hell's probably better
than trying to [D] get by.
