Lyrics

He took a shovel to the rock, And made that mountain into his home, Face as black as coal, And blood and sweat that only his eyes could show, You work so long, You work so long, and then it's all gone, Mountain man stay strong, Keep on, keep on, Mountain man stay strong, Keep on, keep on, Down in Perry County, The boys they never look back, The only thing they've ever leaned on, Is an old tall tree, And all they need to get by, Is their family, It's dark in the hollows, It's darker in those deep cold mines, But it aint quite as dark as, The hell they've been trying to hide, He took a shovel to the rock, And made that mountain into his home, What he needs is what he's got, His old VW, it still shines like new, Down a dusty road, Just killing time and missing you,
