ANGELIC UPSTARTS LYRICS

"King Coal"

Putting on my wellington boots
Overall, boiler suit
Ready to face another day
Down the black hole to earn my pay

I loosen the ground just to fill my head
To keep me from thinking of the day I dread
Can you get me out of this dirty black hole
Or have I to face, old King Coal

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh

King Coal, down the hole
King Coal, black gold
King Coal, the lives he stole
King Coal, it takes bold

Now I've done it, dust fills my chest
I head like a horse, that baby [?]
There must be a way to get out of this mess
Leave it all with a little regret

No question of the comradeship
No doubting our good fellowship
Just a doubt to why they gave our all
To that old man, old King Coal

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh

King Coal, moulds the sole
King Coal, black mans hole
King Coal, the men of steal
King Coal, the rough deal

I loosen the ground just to fill my head
To keep me from thinking of the day I dread
Can you get me out of this dirty black hole
Or have I to face, old King Coal

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh

King Coal, down the hole
King Coal, black gold
King Coal, the lives he stole
King Coal, it takes bold

King Coal, moulds the sole
King Coal, black mans hole
King Coal, the men of steal
King Coal, the rough deal
