Verse: 
G                        Em                         
My pappy said when I was seventeen 
C                            G 
You're six feet tall and you face is clean 
G                             C        G 
And it don't look right for a boy that old 
G                    Em 
To not make a livin' loading coal 


Chorus: 
Em      G        
Loading coal loading coal 
G     C                        G 
I'm a double-first cousin to a dad-blamed mole 
G                     C       G 
Never get rich for to save my soul 
G                         Em           D       G 
And forty-eleven years of loading coal loading coal 

Verse: 
G                                    Em 
Ain't  never  got  aquainted  with a dollor  bill 
C                       G 
And I don't ever reckon that I ever will 
G                         C          G 
A dollar ain't made for a fellow I'm told 
G                       Em 
That scoops up a livin' loading coal 

REPEAT Chorus 

Instrumental: G C G D G 

Verse: 
G                          Em 
I cussed everything in the mining camp 
C                                G 
From my shovel and my pick to my carbide lamp 
G                       C           G 
But I know just as well when I grow old 
G                           Em 
I'll still be a cussin' but loading coal 

REPEAT Chorus 

Instrumental: G C G D G 

Verse: 
G                      Em 
I know just as well as coal is Black 
C                     G 
One of these days the mines will strike 
G                                C           G 
And I'll sit around starving til I'm finally told 
G                               Em 
There's a nickel more a ton for loading coal 


REPEAT Chorus 
G 
Loading coal, Loading coal, (fade.....)
