Lyrics

0:01In the black dust towns of east Tennessee
0:09All the work's about the same
0:18And you may not go to the job in the ground
0:25But you learn the miner's refrain
0:33I'm down in a hole I'm down in a hole
0:41Down in a deep dark hole
0:49I'm down in a hole I'm down in a hole
0:57Down in a deep dark hole
1:05When you search the rain for the silver cloud
1:13And you wait on days of gold
1:21When you pitch to the bottom
1:25And the dirt comes down
1:29You cry so cold so cold
1:36I'm down in a hole I'm down in a hole
1:45Down in a deep dark hole
2:25And something good in a worried song
2:33For the trouble in your soul
2:41'Cause a worried man who's been a long way down
2:49Down in a deep dark hole
2:56I'm down in a hole I'm down in a hole
3:05Down in a deep dark hole
3:12I'm down in a hole I'm down in a hole
3:21Down in a deep dark hole
3:28I'm down in a deep dark hole
In the black dust towns of east Tennessee
All the work's about the same
And you may not go to the job in the ground
But you learn the miner's refrain
I'm down in a hole  I'm down in a hole
Down in a deep  dark hole
I'm down in a hole  I'm down in a hole
Down in a deep  dark hole
When you search the rain for the silver cloud
And you wait on days of gold
When you pitch to the bottom
And the dirt comes down
You cry so cold  so cold
I'm down in a hole  I'm down in a hole
Down in a deep  dark hole
And something good in a worried song
For the trouble in your soul
'Cause a worried man who's been a long way down
Down in a deep dark hole
I'm down in a hole  I'm down in a hole
Down in a deep  dark hole
I'm down in a hole  I'm down in a hole
Down in a deep  dark hole
I'm down in a deep  dark hole
