Black Lung Heartache

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



[Chorus:]

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 tend my children

Who will be by the side?



[Chorus:]

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



[Chorus Variation:]

Now I said hang on, hang on

Black lung heartache



I've seen many men

They become hard as nails

Carrying the hammers like keys to a jail



[Chorus Variation:]

Now I said hang on, hang on

Black lung heartache



Now I said so long, so long

Black lung heartache
