Dead Feather Moon - 1907 lyrics
rate meDeep down in the West Virginia mines
There's a brand new hire
His days are endless and they leave him tired
He's working like the immigrant he'll never forget
It's hotter than hell and he's covered in sweat
Oh, he's making heaven proud
Deep down in the coal mine of his heart
It's dark
He starts to lose his temper
Where's it gone?
Everyone is at each other's throat
He's working this hard because he'll never forget
His woman at home and the life he's to live
Oh, he's making heaven proud
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
Deep down in the deep down of his soul
It's warm
He cares
He loves his woman
He just wants to see his baby daughter born
He's praying like a father who will never exist
It's darker than hell and he's praying again
Oh, heaven's letting him down
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
The mine
It gives
The mine
It gives
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
The mine
It gives
It's going to take away from your everything
