Coal Tattoo Billy Edd Wheeler Writer Kathy MatteaAm FTravelin on down the coal town roadWell somebody said thats a strange tattoo Someday when Im dead and goneG AmListenin to my rubber tires whineYou have on the side of your head To heaven the land of my dreamsAm FGoodbye to Buckeye, White SycamoreI said, thats a blue mark left by the coal I wont have to worry about losing my jobG AmI leaving you behindLittle more and Id been dead. To bad time and big machinesF GOh, Ive been a coal miner all my lifeI love the rumble, I love the dark Oh! I got no house Lord I got no jobF GLaying down track in a holeLord, I love the cool of the slate Just got a worried soulAm FGot a back like ironwood, bent by the windBut its going down that new road lookin for a job And a blue tattoo on the side of my headG AmBlood veins as blue as the coalTravelin and lookin I hate Left by that number 9 coalG AmBlood veins as blue as the coalTravelin and lookin I hate Left by that number 9 coal Left by that number 9 coal
