Working Man by Celtic Thunder


It's a working man I am

And I've been down underground

And I swear to God

If I ever see the sun

 

Oh for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

And Never again

Will go down underground

 

At the age of sixteen years

Oh he quarrels with his peers

Who vowed they'd never

See another one

 

In the dark recess of the mine

Where you age before your time

And the coal dust lies heavy

On your lungs

It's a working man I am

And I've been down underground

And I swear to God

If I ever see the sun

 

Oh for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

And Never again

Will go down underground

 

At the age of sixty four

He will greet you at the door

And he will gently lead you

By the arm

 

Through the dark recess of the mine

He will take you back in time

And he'll tell you of

The hardships that were had

 

It's a working man I am

And I've been down underground

And I swear to God

If I ever see the sun

 

Oh for any length of time

I can hold it in my mind

And never again will go down underground

 

God I never again will go down underground

Firstly, this song was originally written by Cape Breton's Rita MacNeil back in the 70's. All other versions have come since. Many entertainers have recorded this song, put their own flare on it, but it is still Rita MacNeil's song. There have also been other entertainers who have changed some of the lyrics to suit their likes, but are still using the melody & most of the lyrics of Rita MacNeil's original song 'Working Man'.
