There's talk been going round, how they're gonna shut it down, if the man don't come and fix things pretty quick. - Chorus- Instrumental Verse (Lead over A7) Verse 3 Pretty soon there was a crowd, and it was getting pretty loud, The men said there would be no work today. But the owner wouldn't budge, he just sat there like a judge, and he wouldn't give a nickle more in pay. - Chorus - Verse 4 Just then there came a sound, that rumbled from the ground, everyone went rushin' for the door. The smoke came pouring out, and it finally left no doubt, that the mine was not at issue anymore, - Chorus - Outro lead over A7 -
