Well, this job I've got is a little too hard
Running out of money, Lord, I need more pay
Gonna wake up in the morning, Lord, gonna pack my bags
I'm gonna beat it on down the line
I'm goin' down the line (goin' down the line)
Goin' down the line (goin' down the line)
Goin' down the line (goin' down the line)
Goin' down the line (goin' down the line)
Hey, I'm goin' down the line (goin' down the line)
Goin' down the line (goin' down the line)
Hey, honey, now
Beat it on down the line
Yes, I'll be waiting at the station, Lord, when that train pulls on by
I'm going back where I belong
I'm going back to that same old used-to-be
Down in Joe Brown's coal mine
I said, coal mine (coal mine)
Coal, coal mine (coal mine)
I said, coal mine (coal mine)
Yeah, coal mine (coal mine)
I said, coal mine (coal mine)
Yeah-yeah (coal mine)
Coal mine, coal mine
Down in Joe Brown's coal mine
Yeah, I'm goin' back to that shack way across that railroad track
Uh-huh, that's where I think I belong
Yeah, get a sweet woman, Lord, and she's waiting there for me
And that's where I'm gonna make my happy home
Said happy home (happy home)
Oh, happy home (happy home)
Said happy home (happy home)
Said happy, said happy
Happy, happy, happy home (happy home)
Yeah, yeah-yeah (happy home)
Happy home for now
That's beautiful, make my happy home
