West Virginia Mine (Version 2)

Mm, mm-hmm
Mm, mm-hmm

Don't you take me to the West Virginia mine
Don't you take me
Don't you make me leave my love behind
Don't you make me
Whoa, low-down industry
You don't protect my family
You know they're dyin' in West Virginia mine

Down so long in the West Virginia mine
It's too long now
Like to quit, but Lord God knows we have tried
Just can't quit now
Coal dust gets in your lungs
Son, don't you do what your Daddy done
Lord, you know he's lyin' in the West Virginia mine

Livin' near West Virginia mine
It's too near now
Cardboard houses and coal dust covered vines
But you see you can't get no other job
When all your good health has been robbed
Keep on, keep on cryin' 'bout West Virginia mine

Your Daddy's lyin' in the West Virginia mine
People dyin' in the West Virginia mine
I got to keep on cryin' about those West Virginia coal mines
