   Hes broken the lives of too many good men

   Been hauling coal since i was big enough to fight

  Some 30 odd shift with out a glimpse of daylight

   The corporation likes to say that everythings alright

   Dig your self a hole    get outa sight

   Theres a dark cloud above me thats blocking out the sun

   Burn another hunk of coal listen to the engines run

   1 half is starving while the others having fun

 So call the captain, call the captain, call the captain, call the captiannn

  (verse)

              C          Cmaj9              Am
    Theres a hole in this bucket ive been carrying around
              C       Cmaj9              Am
    I fill it up to the top and watch it spill on the ground
        C            Cmaj9             Am
    I go down to the mines and when i come back up
        G
    I got nothin to show but the sweat on my brow

    These hills are my own flesh and bones

    There all that i love and there all that i know

    Please dont ask me to destroy my own home

    I'm not gonna choose between my heart and soul, soo

    Call the Captain tell him i aint coming in

    He can dig his own coal something else is happening

    This living that I'm making is doing us in

    So call the captain, call the captain,.......call the captainnn
