Black Lung Heartache Lyrics

Well, I'm a man of the mountain I'm just made of dirt Of this earth, I traveled Like a shepherd and his herd
And I said hang on, hang on Black lung heartache
I sleep in a modest house These green hills I mind And if I plow, who'll tend my children Who will be by the side?
And I said hang on, hang on Black lung heartache
I've shed many tears Seems I can't shed no more You can see them on the table You can see 'em on the floor
And I said hang on, hang on Black lung heartache
I've seen many men They become hard as nails Carrying their hammers Like keys to a jail
Now I said hang on, hang on Black lung heartache Now I said so long, so long Black lung heartache
