Boss man boss man what do ya say

I gotta get you alone in the mine some day

Boss man boss man turn it around

If you don't look away how can I sit down

Look at this load upon my back

Gotta get this wheel back on the track

I can't hold on but I can't let go

And I can't say yes I can't say no

Holes in my pockets and holes in my shoes

If you're ready for me I'm ready for you

The company plan takes all my pay

Got a child in July and another last May

Boss man boss man what do ya say

Gonna get you alone in the mine some day

Push your face down in the coal

Cause you got no heart you got no soul

Country life's the life for me

In ten more years I'll a pensioner be

The younger lad knows when the girls are out

But you might say he's a rural sprout

Boss man boss man what do ya say

Gonna get you alone in the mine some day

Boss man boss man clear the track

You're gonna tear the skin right off my back

Boss man boss man what do ya say

If you can't lend a hand then get outta my way

It'll be murder in the first degree

If you ever lay your hands on me

Boss man boss man pay my rent

A dollar I've earned is a dollar I've spent

The company plan takes all my check

For breakin' my back and riskin' my neck

Boss man boss man what do ya say

I gotta get you alone in the mine some day

I can't hold on but I can't let go

And I can't say yes I can't say no
