Lyrics

There's always danger in the chemicals at hand We pull the copper out day and night The color of the river's made by man As it runs away from the copper mine Mornings are so cold that you beg for sun At 5:30 when the trucks arrive Before too long you wish it's roasted or done Trucks are like ants on the face of the mine A miner's life is short unless he uses care We slowly eat at the desert in the roar and grind My only wish is my children don't wind up there Down in the hole of the copper mine When I started I knew not one thing Machinery hasn't changed in the longest time I close my eyes and I'm a bird on the wing Flying far from the copper mine Flying far from the copper mine
