LYRICS

CHORUS: [Workin' in a coalmine
goin' down, down, down
Workin' in a coalmine (woop!)

about to slip down

Workin' in a coalmine

goin' down, down, down

Workin' in a coalmine (woop!)

about to slip down]



5 o'clock in the mornin'

I'm already up and gone

Lord, I'm so tired

How long can this go on?



[chorus]



'Cause I make a lil' money

hauling gold by the ton

But when Saturday rolls around

I'm too tired for having fun (too tired for havin')



[chorus]



Lord, I'm so tired!

How long can this go on?



[chorus]



5 o'clock in the morning

I'm already up and gone

Lord, I'm so tired

How long can this go on?



[chorus]



5 o'clock in the mornin'

I'm already up and gone

Lord, I'm so tired

How long can this go on?



[chorus]



'Cause I make a lil' money

hauling gold by the ton

But when Saturday rolls around

I'm too tired for having fun (too tired for havin')



[chorus]



(Lord, I'm so tired!)
